Php echo json array with children

I'm trying to echo the [steamid] from a json array. I keep getting an error message: "Notice: Undefined index: friends". I tried to create a loop and echo only the steamid's but I think i'm failing to target the [steamid] child element.

<?php

$jsondata = file_get_contents('http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamUser/GetFriendList/v0001/?key=<api key>&steamid=<steamid>&relationship=friend');

$data = json_decode($jsondata, true);

foreach ($data['friendslist'] AS $d){
echo $d['friends'];
}

?>

This his how the json file looks:

    {
"friendslist": {
    "friends": [
        {
            "steamid": "76561197961044519",
            "relationship": "friend",
            "friend_since": 1267024607
        },
        {
            "steamid": "76561197962344290",
            "relationship": "friend",

You're not looping through the correct array (as samlev says above)...

<?php

    $jsondata = file_get_contents('http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamUser/GetFriendList/v0001/?key=<api key>&steamid=<steam id>&relationship=friend');

    $data = json_decode($jsondata, true);

    foreach ($data['friendslist']['friends'] AS $d){
        echo $d['steamid'];
    }

?>

When you foreach friendlist, you're finding the friends array, which doesn't have a key friends.

Instead just get the friends property directly, and foreach that.

<?php

$jsondata = file_get_contents('http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamUser/GetFriendList/v0001/?key=<api key>&steamid=<steam id>&relationship=friend');

$data = json_decode($jsondata, true);

foreach ($data['friendslist']['friends'] AS $d){
    echo $d['steamid'];
}

?>
