[Notes that argument order in examples is reversed; has been fixed.] --was-- I dont know if anyone else has noticed this, or maybe Ive missed something.. but the example seems to be wrong, well is wrong, shouldnt it be: <?php $array = array(0 => "blue", 1 => "red", 2 => "green", 3 => "red"); $key = array_search("green", $array); // $key = 2; $key array_search("red", $array); // $key = 1; ?> Notice we are now actualy searching for the needle in the haystack instead of searching for the haystack in the needle as the original example was doing. NOTE to moderator, if I am right you wont need to add this note, just change the example and make a small note to bring attention to the problem so others who have slipped up on this will know it was the example that was wrong. cheers. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-search.php
