Add asociated array to the Values retrieved before

Question

I have this code, witch retrieves the values I need:

<?php foreach($allProducts as $p): ?>
 <?php if(!$p->isSaleable()) continue; ?>
 <?php $out=$p->getAttributeText($pAtt->getName()); ?>
 <?php $frontValues[$out]=$out; ?>
 <?php $colors=$p->getData(strtolower($pAtt->getName())); ?>
<?php endforeach ?>

This is the markup that places this to my page:

<li><a id="a-<?php echo $out ?>"><?php echo implode('</li><li>">', $frontValues); ?></a></li>

The problem is that the echo $out is retrieved only ones, but there are more items in the array and all of them get's the same value, witch is not good for me.

The problem is that I can't figure out, how to make an Asociated Array to the values of $frontValaues array and add accordingly assign the correct id to the retrieved item.

I tryed adding

<?php $colorValues[$colors]=$colors; ?>

in foreach, and then replicating the same implode method, like this:

<li><a id="a-<?php echo implode('', $colorValues); ?>"><?php echo implode('</li><li>">', $frontValues); ?></a></li>

but then this array is adding all the values to the ID.

How can I separate them? So the only correct retrevied value would be asociated to the <a>.

I'm quite a newby here, so any suggestion is welcome.

Thanks,

Not sure if I understand your issue correctly but try

foreach($allProducts as $p){
  if(!$p->isSaleable()) continue; 
  $out = $p->getAttributeText($pAtt->getName());
  $frontValues[$out]=$out; 
  $colors=$p->getData(strtolower($pAtt->getName()));
  $colorValues[$out]=$colors; 
}


<?php foreach($frontValues  as $key => $value) : ?>
   <li><a id="a-<?php echo $colorValues[$key] ?>"><?php echo $value ?></li> 
<?php endforeach; ?>

or

$output = array();
foreach($allProducts as $p){
  if(!$p->isSaleable()) continue; 
  $output[$p->getAttributeText($pAtt->getName())] = array(
                'out' => $p->getAttributeText($pAtt->getName()),
                'color' => $p->getData(strtolower($pAtt->getName()))
              );
}

<?php foreach($output  as $key => $value) : ?>
   <li><a id="a-<?php echo $value['color'] ?>"><?php echo $value['out'] ?></li> 
<?php endforeach; ?>
