I quite like the following code for making multidimensional arrays unique: <?php foreach ($arrAddressList AS $key => $arrAddress) { $arrAddressList[$key] = serialize($arrAddress); } $arrAddressList = array_unique($arrAdressList); foreach ($arrAddressList AS $key => $strAddress) { $arrAddressList[$key] = unserialize($strAddress); } ?> This gets me a unique array while not minding wether the the original array contains arrays or just strings (or whatever...). --was-- I quite like the following code for making multidimensional arrays unique: foreach ($arrAddressList AS $key => $arrAddress) { $arrAddressList[$key] = serialize($arrAddress); } $arrAddressList = array_unique($arrAdressList); foreach ($arrAddressList AS $key => $strAddress) { $arrAddressList[$key] = unserialize($strAddress); } This gets me a unique array while not minding wether the the original array contains arrays or just strings (or whatever...). http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-unique.php
