note 70866 added to ref.array

The array system is sadly lacking a "set" function... I needed one that would set the pointer to the key that I specified. So I wrote my own. <? $array=array(); $array['a']='lala'; $array['b']='blabla'; $array['c']='nono'; set($array, 'b'); echo current($array); // outputs blabla function set(&$array, $key) { reset($array); while($current=key($array)) { if($current==$key) { return true; } next($array); } return false; } ?> ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 69.41.14.248 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.array.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/70866 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70866/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70866/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70866/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70866/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70866/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70866/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70866 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/70866 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
