Re: Banner Ad Script

I think I solved my problem which was in my algorithm, but I need your help... 1. I have an array $array = array (1,2,3,3,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,9); 2. The variable $picked has the value 2. 3. If I print the value of $array[$picked] I see the number three. 4. Well instead of printing the number three I want to remove all instances of 3 from the array. So, my array should look like $array = array (1,2,4,5,6,7,8,9,9); Basically, whatever the value of $array[picked] is, I want to remove all instances of that value from the array.
