Access to array $this->session->array

Question

How can i access an array like this $this->session->userdata('auth') ?

print_r() displays:

Array (
  [ncli] => 0
  [nomecli] => somename 
  [nomcli1] => Administrador 
  [morcli] => company 
  [nuser] => admin 
  [pwdcli] => pwdadmin 
)

But I can't use $this->session->userdata('auth')[ncli]...

Put it in a variable:

$data = $this->session->userdata('auth');
echo $data['ncli'];

The reason why you can't do ()[] is that PHP just doesn't support it yet.

You will be able to do so from PHP 5.4 where they've introduced array dereferencing. Till then use an auxiliary variable.

$auth = $this->session->userdata('auth');
$auth['ncli'];

Cool, I thought we'd still have to wait till 6 no matter what the next minor 5 release was. – BoltClock Feb 10 '11 at 02:48
