Position of element in array

I've recently been trying to delete an entry in the middle of a two dimensional array. While looking throught the multitude of array functions in the manual, I found that array_splice() could possibly work. I have only found one problem though. The array_splice(...) requires an argument where the offset is the position you want the splice to start. The only problem with this is that the two dimensional array I am working with is associative, and there is no way I can know the position of an entry two dimensions deep w/o making my own custom search function (which I could do if I wanted to). So I guess as a recomendation to all you PHP developers, it would be really cool if you could make a search function that returns the position, not just true or false. Or if there is some function that already does this, please excuse my ignorance, and please clue me in on this truely great function. -- Gerrit Padgham gpadgham@perfectorder.com Consultant
