In response to kerry@lothrop.de and anyone else posting homemade array_search functions using
foreach, you have defeated the purpose.
The original purpose was to have a PHP3 compatible array_search function. But foreach and
array_keys() are only available in PHP4.
For a PHP3 compatible search function you need to use:
reset($array);
while(list($key,$value) = each($array))
Instead of the foreach() loop
