Hi all,
Here's a function that will look trough an array, and removes the array member when the search
string is found.
function array_clean ($input, $delete = false, $caseSensitive = false)
{
$i = 0;
while($i < count($input))
{
if($delete)
{
if($caseSensitive)
{
if(!strstr($input[$i] ,$delete))
{
$return[] = $input[$i];
}
}
else
{
if(!stristr($input[$i], $delete))
{
$return[] = $input[$i];
}
}
}
else
{
if(!empty($input[$i]))
{
$return[] = $input[$i];
}
}
$i++;
}
return $return;
}
array array_clean(array input [, string needle [, boolean case sensitive]])
if needle is left empty, the function will delete the array members that have no value (this means
if it's empty).
NOTE: It rebuilds the array from scratch, so keys begin with 0, like you would create a new array.
Example:
$array = array("John", "Doe", "Macy");
$array = array_clean($array, "doe", false);
print_r($array);
would return:
array
(
[0] => John
[1] => Macy
)
Hopes this helps someone :-)
