you need to be careful if you are using array_search() with unset() for deleting a value in the searched indexed // wrong way $checked = ["1", "2", "3"]; // array with numbers in double quotes unset($checked[array_search('on', $checked)]); // this deletes value at 0 index // array_search returns mixed data type, which means any type of data will be returned // in the above case it returned false and false is type casted to 0 // so it deletes the value at index zero the point to say is never use array_search() with unset() while deleting a value in an array using index. ---- Server IP: 208.43.231.9 Probable Submitter: 1.186.249.182 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-search.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/123310 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123310/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123310/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123310/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123310/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123310/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123310/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123310 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/123310 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
