note 19084 added to function.array-splice

A reference is made to INSERT'ing into an array here with array_splice, however its not explained very well. I hope this example will help others find what took me days to research. --code begin-- $original_array = array(1,2,3,4,5); $insert_into_key_position = 3; $item_to_insert = "blue"; $returned = array_splice($original_array, $insert_into_key_position, 0, $item_to_insert); $original_array will now show: 1,2,3,blue,4,5 --code end--- Remember that you are telling the array to insert the element into the KEY position. Thus the elements start with key 0 and so on 0=>1, 1=>2, 2=>3, 3=>blue, 4=>4, 5=>5. And walla, you've inserted. I can't say if this is of any value for named keys, or multidimensional arrays. However it does work for single dimensional arrays. $returned should be an empty array as nothing was returned. This would have substance if you were doing a replace instead. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-splice.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+19084 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+19084 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+19084
