 Is there no function to do this? It seems like alot of overhead to do
this
 process, especially if the array is big. comments?

Not if you do not create another array, which in my oppinion
is totally unnecessary.

I always did the following after finding the position from
where to strip off the element:

for ($i=$elpos; $icount($array); $i++) {
$array[$i] = $array[$i+1];
}
unset($array[count($array)-1]);

$key = array_search(value-to-search);
