Hi there,

I've had this problem bending my mind for a while now (head cold doesn't help either!), basically I have a PHP array which looks like this example:

$array[0][0] = 'apples';
$array[0][1] = 'pears';
$array[0][2] = 'oranges';

$array[1][0] = 'steve';
$array[1][1] = 'bob';

And I would like to be able to produce from this a table with every possible combination of these, but without repeating any combinations (regardless of their position), so for example this would output

Array 0 Array 1 apples steve apples bob pears steve pears bob

But I would like for this to be able to work with as many different arrays as possible.

Many thanks!
