$layer is my array -
$currPos = array_search($HTTP_POST_VARS["selLayer"], $layer);
$arrB = array_slice($layer, $currPos);
$val = array_shift($arrB);
$arrA = array_slice($layer, 0, $currPos);
$layer = array_merge($arrA, $arrB);
// I do this to change the position of the element actually
// so you can comment this out
// array_unshift($layer, $val);
It's little memory expensive since it will create two more arrays but you
can use unset or something to delete them, will work inside a function.
