I have a multidimensional array and I want to build an url providing only the id of the children.
array (
0 =>
array (
'id' => '1',
'p_pag' => '0',
'link' => 'Contact',
'children' =>
array (
0 =>
array (
'id' => '2',
'p_pag' => '1',
'link' => 'Contact-County',
'children' =>
array (
0 =>
array (
'id' => '3',
'p_pag' => '2',
'link' => 'Contact-Town-1',
'children' =>
array (
),
),
),
),
),
),
)
I expect a function where to specify the array above and the id as 3 in order to obtain an link like this /Contact/Contact-County/Contact-Town-1/
My attempt:
function getlink($array,$id)
{
$link='';
foreach($array as $aindex => $aval)
{
if($aval['id']==$id){$link.='/'.$aval['link'];}
elseif($aval['children']){...}
}
}

function buildUrlPath($array, $id, $path = '') {
foreach ($array as $item) {
if ($item['id'] == $id) {
$path .= '/' . $item['id'];
return $path;
}
if (!empty($item['children'])) {
$result = buildUrlPath($item['children'], $id, $path . '/' . $item['id']);
if ($result) {
return $result;
}
}
}
return false;
}
$id = 3;
$urlPath = buildUrlPath($array, $id);
echo $urlPath; // Output: /1/2/3
