RE: [PHP] Simple array question, part 2
[snip] I have a $data array like this: [0] = 158 [1] = 169926 [2] = 169931 [3] = 169932 [4] = 169933 then when i delete the first one ([0] = 158) it becomes like this: [1] = 169926 [2] = 169931 [3] = 169932 [4] = 169933 how do I get it to sort again from 0,1,2,3 etc? I tried sort(), ksort(),reset() etcbut it still shows as starting from 1 instead of resorting the keys starting from 0 what function should i lookup/use?

Hey, I have a $data array like this: [0] = 158 [1] = 169926 [2] = 169931 [3] = 169932 [4] = 169933 then when i delete the first one ([0] = 158) it becomes like this: [1] = 169926 [2] = 169931 [3] = 169932 [4] = 169933 how do I get it to sort again from 0,1,2,3 etc? I tried sort(), ksort(),reset() etcbut it still shows as starting from 1 instead of resorting the keys starting from 0 what function should i lookup/use? If you're always taking the first element, why not use array_shift? http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.array-shift.php array_shift() shifts the first value of the array off and returns it, shortening the array by one element and moving everything down. All numerical array keys will be modified to start counting from zero while literal keys won't be touched. If array is empty (or is not an array), NULL will be returned. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Nope, array_pop is just deleting the last key/valuei need to reindex
it
without deleteing anything.

you might not be there. Always. I mean it.
You shouldn't just delete an item from an array, it is improper
handling
Thats right, it's not array_pop(), its array_shift()...musta' had a
brain fart and you didn't see the other array functions

Re: [PHP] Simple array question, part 2
Just so you know what is happening, the numbers are keys (index) for each array element, not the order number. It's the same as if you had named the elements themselves. Like this: ['zero']=158 ['one']=169926 ['two']=169931 ... Or [0]=158 [12]=169926 [5]=169931 ... Deleting an element won't reorder the names of the elements since php wouldn't know how.

RE: [PHP] Simple array question, part 2
Nope, array_shift()... is taking off the last one too
Josip sent me the solution:
$array = array_values($array);
Cheers,
