PHP foreach loop on multi dimensional array

having a bit of difficulty with a multi-dimensional array. I have shortened it, but the array looks like this

array(192) {
    ["count"]=> int(191)
        [0]=>array(124) {
            [11]=>string(10) "usnchanged"
                ["homemta"]=>array(2) {
                  ["count"]=>int(1)
                  [0]=>string(206) "Some String"
                }
            [12]=>string(7) "homemta"
                ["proxyaddresses"]=>array(2) {
                  ["count"]=>int(1)
                  [0]=>string(46) "SMTP:[email protected]"
                }
        }
    }
}

I am trying to get the email addresses which will be listed under proxyaddresses. What I am doing at the moment is the following:

for($i=0; $i<$data["count"]; $i++) {
    foreach($data[$i]["proxyaddresses"] as $object) {
        print_r($object);   
    }
}

This gets me the data I need, but inbetween all the data I get a lot of warnings like

Notice: Undefined index: proxyaddresses in index.php on line 88

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in index.php on line 88

So I presume it is not liking something. How would I properly do the loop based on the above array structure?

Thanks

It's because proxyaddresses element is not present for each loop. You have to check if it's set or not to avoid warning by using php isset() function.

for($i=0; $i<$data["count"]; $i++) {
  if(isset($data[$i]["proxyaddresses"])){
    foreach($data[$i]["proxyaddresses"] as $object) {
      print_r($object);   
    }
  }
}

for($i=0; $i<$data["count"]; $i++) {
    if(!isset($data[$i]["proxyaddresses"])) continue;
    foreach($data[$i]["proxyaddresses"] as $object) {
        print_r($object);   
    }
}
