How to access to EXL, TEMPS and IP values with a loop for ?

Answer 1

You have to access the parent array as Object, but the child's are normal array.

SO try this.

$array->string[0];  //get the EXL 

Example:

$array = array(
    "string" => array("EXL", "TEMPS"),
    "string2" => array("EXL 2", "TEMPS 2"),
);

$obj_arr = (Object) $array;
echo "<pre>";
print_r($obj_arr);
echo "</pre>";

echo $obj_arr->string[0]."<br/>".$obj_arr->string[1];

Output:

EXL
TEMPS

Answer 2

In your case, this is an instance of a Class which gives you an Object.

There are two commonly used methods to target an Array within an Object:

// Loop through each stored data
foreach($Object->string as $_string)
{
    echo $_string;
}

Or you can access the Array directly:

echo $Object->string[0];

The -> in PHP is how we use Objects (map).

Both work fine.

EDIT: Reading comments

To access the Array held in the Object within a for loop:

// $i starts at 0 since array index's start at 0
for($i = 0; $i < count($Obj->string); $i++)
{
    echo $Obj->string[$i];
    // TODO: Add your code...
}
