PHP get multiple data from an array - php

Question

I'm trying to insert data from the LinkedIn API into a MySql database.
My PHP code is getting all the values from the Array which is not in the second level. I don't know how to explain this, but I'll include the Array structure below:
Array
(
[person] => Array
(
[id] => ########
[first-name] => ########
[last-name] => ########
[languages] => Array
[skills] => Array
(
[skill] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[skill] => Array
(
[name] => Start-ups
)
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[skill] => Array
(
[name] => Business Strategy
)
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 3
[skill] => Array
(
[name] => Marketing Strategy
)
)
[2] => Array
(
[id] => 12
[skill] => Array
(
[name] => Management
)
)
)
)
[email-address] => ########
[phone-numbers] => ########
[im-accounts] => ########
[twitter-accounts] => ########
[headline] => ########
[picture-url] => ########
[public-profile-url] => ########
)
)
My PHP code is as follows:
/* SKILLS */
// An array to hold it temporarily
$skills_arr = array();
foreach ($array->skills->skill as $t) {
// Cast it to a string to get the text value back
$skills_arr[] = (string)$t;
}
// Implode the array to a string
$skills = implode(', ', $skills_arr);
What i need is to get all the "Skills" and seperate them by comma ",".
If my code worked I would have got the following value as $skills = "Start-ups, Business-strategy, ...."
Ideas?

You can use nested Foreach loop for this.Like
$skills_arr = array();
foreach($array['person']['skills']['skill'] as $val)
{
foreach($val['skill'] as $res)
{
$skills_arr[] = $res['name'];
}
}
echo $skills = implode(', ', $skills_arr);
