hi all,
have a simple problem,
my array is :-

$c = array(
"2" => array(
"id" => "2",
"name" => "Sport",
"children" => array(
"4" => array(
"id" => "4",
"name" =>
"Archery",
"children" =>
"",
),

"5" => array(
"id" => "5",
"name" =>
"Badminton",
"children" =>
"",
),
),
),

);

and i want to convert this to

$options = array(
'Sports' =>array(
'3' => 'Archery',
'4' => 'Badminton',
),
);

Where 3 & 4 are the keys foe Archey & Badminton resp.
I am a newbie to PHP
getting so many problems solving this,
Any help appriciated.

something like this...

$options = array();
$kids = array();
foreach ($c as $cc) {
foreach ($cc['children'] as $key => $value) {
$k = $key - 1;
$kids[] = array($k => $value);
array_push($cc['name'] => $kids);
}
}

it depends on the bigger picture of your data and how it's formatted.
