How to echo single value from multidimensional array when key is numeric?

Question

Take this array as an example

Array
(
[events] => Array
    (
        [0] => Array
            (
                [event] => Array
                    (
                        [category] => seminars,sales
                        [status] => Live

How do I retrieve the value of category? I've tried various combinations such;

echo $array->events->events[0]->event->category;

So simple, yet I just can't figure it out.

Sorry for the lame question.

Solution 1

It should be

echo $array['events'][0]['event']['category'];

Solution 2

You are using the object property selector.

Try this:

echo $array['events'][0]['event']['category'] ;

Solution 3

Try echo $array['events'][0]['event']['category'];

Solution 4

Like this:

echo $arr['events'][0]['event']['category'];

I do not get it, why the down vote? Who does this kind of things, down voting without leaving a comment? I urge SO to change there policy on this!

I had converted it from a object to an array previously, thank you for mentioning that.
