[PHP] select unique values from an array

2003-02-01 Thread Peter Gumbrell 
I am attempting to populate form elements from a text file which has been
read and split into arrays. Some of the items are repeated many times: grade
level, for example. Is there a way of just selecting unique values so that
each value is displayed only once in the check boxes or radio buttons?

Many thanks

Take a look at the function array_unique() which removes duplicate values
from an array. Perhaps this function can help you.
