Array: Multi-dimensional
Choice to make Array or SQLLite : both are slick, lite is faster and neat when you need list of items.
This is an example of multidimensional array, and referencing arays inside a string. The user requests Zone and team id and name in either North or South zone.
<?php
$region=$_POST['zone'];
$x=$_POST['id'];
$teams = array(
"North"=>array(
"Bdale",
"Raiders",
"Itasca", "Wood Dale","Carol Stream"
),
"South"=>array(
"Lakers",
"Patriots", "Arsenal"
)
);
print(" You requested Zone $region and id $x :"); print("---".$teams[$region][$x]);
echo "<br>You have following teams<br>";
foreach ($teams[$region] as $key=>$value) {print("$key and $value<br>");}
?>
