Hello everyone please see this code :

<?$data = array();$data[0] = "test";$data[1] = "price";$data[2] = "img";$data[3] = "img";echo(array_unique($data));?>

if I wrote code like on above it won't show anything, but if I using print_r it can displayed Q : Actually can I display it using echo ? So that the result shown like this :

testpriceimg

array_unique() return an array. print_r() can display arrays. echo can't. you have to loop through the array to echo those elements.http://au.php.net/array_unique

I think I need to the point, please see this image : unique.jpg code on above :

$count = count($_SESSION['buy']);  while($x<$count){$product['title'][$x] = $_SESSION['buy'][0];$product['price'][$x] = $_SESSION['buy'][1];$product['img'][$x] = $_SESSION['buy'][2];}

Q : Can I using array_unique to avoid duplicate array value like image on above? Q : If array_unique not possible, what I must do so that array value not duplicated ? please help me thanks

Yes, array_unique removes duplicate values. What I don't understand is why you're setting several values to the same values from $_SESSION. Why are you filling up the product array with the first 3 entries in $_SESSION? That's creating duplicate data.

This code just doesn't really make sense to me:

$count = count($_SESSION['buy']);while($x<$count){  $product['title'][$x] = $_SESSION['buy'][0];   $product['price'][$x] = $_SESSION['buy'][1];  $product['img'][$x] = $_SESSION['buy'][2];}

If $_SESSION['buy'] contains only those three items, and $count is 3, and assuming $x starts at 0, then you're going to end up with the same 3 values from $_SESSION['buy'] duplicated in $product['title'][0], $product['title'][1], and $product['title'][2]. I don't know why you need the same values in all 3 of those titles. You're not changing the indexes for $_SESSION['buy'], so it's always copying the values from $_SESSION['buy'][0], $_SESSION['buy'][1], and $_SESSION['buy'][2]. Those 3 values get copied into the other array more than once. I don't know what the point of that is, you're just duplicating the same 3 values multiple times. That loop is also missing an increment for $x, so it's never going to stop.

Sorry, I forgot to post something here, please see this code :

<form method="post" action="buy.php">	    <input type="text" value="<?$id1 = $product_id?>" style="display:none" name="test" /></div>						 <div class="pr" style="height:15px"><b style="font-size:14px"><?echo"$product_name";?></b></div>						 <div class="pr"><input type="submit" value="BUY NOW" /></div></form>   //this is product 1<form method="post" action="buy.php">	    <input type="text" value="<?$id2 = $product_id2;?>" style="display:none" name="test" /></div>						 <div class="pr" style="height:15px"><b style="font-size:14px"><?echo"$product_name2";?></b></div>						 <div class="pr"><input type="submit" value="BUY NOW" /></div></form>   //this is product 2

When I click "BUY NOW" for every product (only once) it will shown like this : expect.png And if click "BUY NOW" twice or more , it will occurs like image on above. I will try your suggestion to remove $product['title'][$x], If I got stuck I will post here Thanks________________________________________________________________________________________ OFFQ : My friend told to me if better I learn java rather than PHP, he told me because in the future java is the best to build web, rather than PHP, is that correct ? please explain me (if not objection) Thanks again

Hi, This to reply :

If $_SESSION['buy'] contains only those three items, and $count is 3, and assuming $x starts at 0, then you're going to end up with the same 3 values from $_SESSION['buy'] duplicated in $product['title'][0], $product['title'][1], and $product['title'][2]. I don't know why you need the same values in all 3 of those titles. You're not changing the indexes for $_SESSION['buy'], so it's always copying the values from $_SESSION['buy'][0], $_SESSION['buy'][1], and $_...
This is my fix code :
<?if($_SESSION['buy']){$count = count($_SESSION['buy']);for($x=0;$x<$count;$x++){$product_title = $_SESSION['buy'][$x][0];$product_price = $_SESSION['buy'][$x][1];$product_img = $_SESSION['buy'][$x][2];$product_id = $_SESSION['buy'][$x][3];$product_qty = $_SESSION['buy'][$x][4]; echo"$product_title<br />$product_price<br />$product_img<br />$product_qty<br /><br/>";}}else{echo"fail";}?>

I had try new code, this my code :

<?$product = array();$product[0] = $_SESSION['buy'][0];$product[1] = $_SESSION['buy'][1];$product[2] = $_SESSION['buy'][2];$product[3] = $_SESSION['buy'][3];$product[4] = $_SESSION['buy'][4];  $product = array_unique($product);  if($_SESSION['buy']){$count = count($_SESSION['buy']);for($x=0;$x<$count;$x++){  $product_title = $product[$x][0];  $product_price = $product[$x][1];  $product_img = $product[$x][2];echo $product_title."<br />".$product_price."<br />".$product_img."<br /><br />";}}else{echo"fail";} 

Now I put array inside array, so that array_unique can be work, but if I delete code :

$product = array_unique($product);

It would be back like image on above (duplicated), But if I using this code , it's only show one product,and the other product cannot be shown. + About new code : Q : What's mistake from my code? + About fix code : This is still duplicated Q : from both of this code, which code that possible to be use so that when user buy product , it would be not duplicated? please help me Thanks

your code seem confusin, but why not display the information in the cart "since thats what it seems like your making" by the session id of the person whos logged in? so in your db you should have a login table and the other other table with a column name user_id which will hold the session_id in it. #justmyopinion

This: <input type="text" value="<?$id1 = $product_id?>" style="display:none" name="test" /> Is not going to print anything in the value. You can verify that by viewing the source code that PHP produces. The value will be empty.

I will try your suggestion to remove $product['title'][$x],
I did not suggest to remove that. I'm asking questions, I'm trying to understand your code, not suggesting things to remove. I'm also trying to help you understand what your code is doing, it sounds like you don't understand it.

Try this <?$data = array();$data[0] = "test";$data[1] = "price";$data[2] = "img";$data[3] = "img"; $new_data = array_unique($data); foreach($new_data as $elements){ echo "<br>" . $elements; } ?>

there is many way to do that. when user click on buy button check in session array that product id is there or not. if it is there increase the quantity.when you store a product you can store product id and count in two elements of array $_SESSION[1]['productid']$_SESSION[1]['quantity'] same will be with delete.in delete button you will pass the product id and when you submit it, it will decrease the quantity once it reaches 0 you will move the entire product.
