this function controller:

public function yourchallengeaction(){     //get activated challenge names , set variables     $request = jo_request::getinstance();     $mychallenge=$this->getchallenge();     $this->view->challengenames = array();     foreach($mychallenge $k=>$challengename){         $this->view->challengenames[$k]['partnername'] =    $challengename['partnername'];         $this->view->challengenames[$k]['code'] = $challengename['code'];         $this->view->challengenames[$k]['challengetitle'] = $challengename['challengetitle'];         $this->view->challengenames[$k]['description'] = $challengename['description'];         $this->view->challengenames[$k]['image_url'] = $challengename['image_url'];     } 

use reset() or use [0] array key.
