bug in array_unique, ran this code using version 4.0.1pl2: <? $tarray = array('General','Social','Social','Social','Social','Social','Sports','Sports','Sports','Sports','Topic','Topic','Topic','Topic','Topic','Topic','Misc','Misc','Misc','Misc','Misc','Misc','Misc','Misc'); echo "\n*".join(':',$tarray)."*\n"; $tarray = array_unique($tarray); echo "\n*".join(':',$tarray)."*\n"; echo "\nsize=".sizeof($tarray)."\n"; for ($r = 0; $r < sizeof($tarray); $r++) echo "\n*".$tarray[$r]."*"; echo "\n*".join(':',$tarray)."*\n"; echo "\n"; ?> got this output *General:Social:Social:Social:Social:Social:Sports:Sports:Sports:Sports:Topic:Topic:Topic:Topic:Topic:Topic:Misc:Misc:Misc:Misc:Misc:Misc:Misc:Misc* *General:Social:Sports:Topic:Misc* size=5 *General* *Social* ** ** ** *General:Social:Sports:Topic:Misc* WHAT Gives here?, Why does join("",$tarray) give the expected output while $tarray[2] does not? http://www.php.net/manual/function.array-unique.php
