<?php
$a
= array("1");

var_dump(array_fill_keys($a, "test"));
?>

array(1) {
[1]=>
string(4) "test"
}

now string key "1" become an integer value 1, be careful.

If an associative array is used as the second parameter of array_fill_keys, then the associative array will be appended in all the values of the first array.
e.g.
<?php
$array1
= array(
"a" => "first",
"b" => "second",
"c" => "something",
"red"
);

$array2 = array(
"a" => "first",
"b" => "something",
"letsc"
);

print_r(array_fill_keys($array1, $array2));
?>

The output will be
Array(
[first] => Array(
[a] => first,
[b] => something,
[0] => letsc
),
[second] => Array(
[a] => first,
[b] => something,
[0] => letsc
),
[something] => Array(
[a] => first,
[b] => something,
[0] => letsc
),
[red] => Array(
[a] => first,
[b] => something,
[0] => letsc
)
)

RE: bananasims at hotmail dot com

I also needed a work around to not having a new version of PHP and wanting my own keys. bananasims code doesn't like having an array as the second parameter...

Here's a slightly modified version than can handle 2 arrays as inputs:

//we want these values to be keys
$arr1 = (0 => "abc", 1 => "def");
/we want these values to be values
$arr2 = (0 => 452, 1 => 128);

function array_fill_keys($keyArray, $valueArray) {
if(is_array($keyArray)) {
foreach($keyArray as $key => $value) {
$filledArray[$value] = $valueArray[$key];
}
}
return $filledArray;
}

array_fill_keys($arr1, $arr2);

returns:
abc => 452, def =>128

Some of the versions do not have this function.
I try to write it myself.
You may refer to my script below

function array_fill_keys($array, $values) {
if(is_array($array)) {
foreach($array as $key => $value) {
$arraydisplay[$array[$key]] = $values;
}
}
return $arraydisplay;
}

see array_fill_keys are basically used to make a new array from a pre-existing array in a form that the value of the pre-existing array will now be the key of the new Array .And there value will be same That we had given in the 2nd parameter . Example Below---->>>

<?php
//pre existing array
$a = array("a","b","c","d","e");

//new array with a single same value

$newArray = array_fill_keys($a, "Testing");

//printing the array

echo "<pre>";
print_r($newArray);
echo
"</pre>";
?>
output;
Array
(
[a] => Testing
[b] => Testing
[c] => Testing
[d] => Testing
[e] => Testing
)
