note 58237 added to function.array-unique

array_unique function starts its comparation from beginning and pop the key off if there is more values inside array. The last one remains. But i needed to hold priority of the order of values and let the first one in. Here is my easy solution: ##--- function my_array_unique($from) { for ($i=count($from);$i>1;$i--) { $last = $from[$i]; $from[$i] = ""; if (!in_array($last,$from)) $from[$i]=$last; } return array_unique($from); } # One empty value remains in array. # But its very easy to separate it while using output array. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-unique.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+58237 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58237&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58237&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58237&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58237&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58237&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58237&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58237&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+58237&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
