How do you access an array inside another array?

To access the elements of the inner arrays, you simply use two sets of square brackets. For example, pets[1][2] accesses the 3rd element of the array inside the 2nd element of the pets array.

Which is correct way of accessing array elements in PHP?

Accessing Elements in a PHP Array The elements in a PHP numerical key type array are accessed by referencing the variable containing the array, followed by the index into array of the required element enclosed in square brackets ([]).

Can you have an array of arrays in PHP?

A multidimensional array is an array containing one or more arrays. PHP supports multidimensional arrays that are two, three, four, five, or more levels deep.

You can access the inactive tags array with (assuming $myArray contains the array)

$myArray['inactiveTags'];

Your question doesn't seem to go beyond accessing the contents of the inactiveTags key so I can only speculate with what your final goal is.

The first key:value pair in the inactiveTags array is

array ('195' => array(
                 'id' => 195, 
                 'tag' => 'auto')
      )

To access the tag value, you would use

$myArray['inactiveTags'][195]['tag']; // auto

If you want to loop through each inactiveTags element, I would suggest:

foreach($myArray['inactiveTags'] as $value) {
  print $value['id'];
  print $value['tag'];
}

This will print all the id and tag values for each inactiveTag
