note 59439 added to function.array-splice

weikard's function below is useful but it will still strip keys from array elements where the key is an integer, whether or not it is in a string: <?php function array_insert (&$array, $position, $insert_array) { $first_array = array_splice ($array, 0, $position); $array = array_merge ($first_array, $insert_array, $array); } $f = array("three" => "zzz", "3" => "yyy"); $a = array("4.0" => "zzzz", "four" => "yyyy"); array_insert($a,0,$f); var_dump($a); // array(4) { ["three"]=> string(3) "zzz" [0]=> string(3) "yyy" ["4.0"]=> string(4) "zzzz" ["four"]=> string(4) "yyyy" } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-splice.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+59439 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59439&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59439&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59439&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59439&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59439&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59439&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59439&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+59439&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
