Note Submitter: vovan-ve at yandex dot ru ---- >>> for < PHP5.5 , following function can be used : NEVER edit items of array argument by reference! It WILL damage items of original array, which are referenced outside with another variables like this: $foo = array(10, 20, 30); $bar = &$foo[1]; You should just to collect a new array instead of changing array by reference. So, userland implementation can be such a following: # PHP < 5.5 function array_column(array $input, $columnKey, $indexKey = null) { $result = array(); if (null === $indexKey) { if (null === $columnKey) { // trigger_error('What are you doing? Use array_values() instead!', E_USER_NOTICE); $result = array_values($input); } else { foreach ($input as $row) { $result[] = $row[$columnKey]; } } } else { if (null === $columnKey) { foreach ($input as $row) { $result[$row[$indexKey]] = $row; } } else { foreach ($input as $row) { $result[$row[$indexKey]] = $row[$columnKey]; } } } return $result; }
