class Emergency { const Fire = 0; const Flood = 1; const NoMilkInFridge = 2; } $value = 0; // this is an example of the data you might have $refl = new ReflectionClass('Emergency'); $enum = $refl->getConstants(); // returns array. key is string, value is integer. $name = $key[0]; // you now have "Flood"
