Question

I would like to know how to make a function return an associative array. I am getting only values of the returned array but not keys

Accepted Answer

you need to set those keys yourself like. If not it adds automatically an index starting from 0. Have a look at my example

function myfunc(){
    $arr = array();
    $arr[] = 'value0';
    $arr['key1'] = 'value1';
    $arr['key2'] = 'value2';
    $arr[] = 'value3';
    return $arr;
}

that will output

// you see the first and fourth value has the index 0 and 1, 
// the other those that are defined
array(4) {
  [0]=>
  string(6) "value0"
  ["key1"]=>
  string(6) "value1"
  ["key2"]=>
  string(6) "value2"
  [1]=>
  string(6) "value3"
}
