Subject: [PHP] Counting number of value instances within an array
> Hi guys,
>
> Is there a function I can use to count the number of instances of a
> value within an array. For example:
> $a[0] = "bob";
> $a[1] = "bob";
> $a[2] = "fred";
> $a[3] = "james";
> $a[4] = "bob";
> $a[5] = "carl";
>
> Searching for 'bob' would return 3.

> I've had a quick look through the array functions but didn't spot
> anything obvious.
