Well, if the array is always going to be sorted like that you could do something like... $i = $picked + 1; while( $array[$i] == 3 ) { $i++; } array_splice($array, $picked, $i - $picked); If the array isn't sorted, you could either sort it first, or just loop through and skipping the 3's, put the rest into a new array... -philip
