Passing an array into arguments

[fileserverdirect]

Yes I googled this, but I could not find anything. Here is my function that is in a class:

        public function create()
        {
            $args = func_get_args();
            $element = $args[0];
            if(isset($this->elements->$element)) {
                $value=$this->elements->$element;
                unset($args[0]);
                $format = implode(", ", $args);
                printf($value, $format);
                return true;
            }
            else {
                return false;
            }
        } 

My problem is that I want to replace each argument from the original create() function into printf. $this->elements contains an object with formatted elements, ready for printf. I have gotten this to work with one argument, but some elements require multiple ones. How do I pass an array into arguments that a function will read each as it's own argument?

I'm not sure I understand the problem.

Can you do a foreach loop with a second function?

func1() {
$a = getargs;
foreach($a as $item) {
func2($item);
}
}

I should have been more clear, I want an values in an array to be attributes in a function. Like:

$eg = array("attribute2", "attribute3") 

then have each become a actually attribute into a function once:

printf($always-here, "attribute2", "attribute3") 

The last two can change dynamicly, depending on how many values are in the array.

Ok, I figured it out. For those who want to know:

call_user_func_array($function_name, $attributes_in_an_array); 

*Works with built in functions*

Edit:
Apparently there is ANOTHER function called vprintf, which takes an array directly!

Ah, I see. That can be tough, but it looks like that solution works fine.
