Note Submitter: pta@rogers.com ---- Can $needle be a partial associated array? I figured this should work but don't think so? Is there a simple solution? In other words, $haystack = array ( array ('first'=>"tom", 'mid'=>"paul", 'last'=>"smith"), array ('first'=>"paul", 'mid'=>"tony", 'last'=>"jones") ); $needle = array ('first'=>"tom", 'last'=>"smith"); $key = array_search ($needle, $haystack); would have thought that would return $key = 0 Am i hoping for too much here?
