Hello Mike,

>$promo['abc']['123']=array('pdprice'=>167,'pfprice'=>197,'src_cde'=>'abc123'
>);
>
>You can see that the promo_code, '123' works as a key to unlocking the

Ah that's nice. I used often this, but not in PHP, but with UserTalk,
which is the scripting language for Frontier/Radio UserLand.
Cheers
