Hey (again :).. This is the code I'm working on but can't figure out to the heck of me how to remove these duplicate "words"/strings... A small sample of the output is added to the upload so you can see what I mean.. HELP! ps: a few comments have been left there for testing. $stmt = $pdo->prepare("select DISTINCT terms from links WHERE terms LIKE ? GROUP BY terms"); $stmt->execute(array("$alpha%")); // fetching rows into array $data = $stmt->fetchAll(); //echo gettype($data); foreach($data as $result_tag) { $one = implode(', ',$result_tag) . ""; $two = strtok($one, ',')."<br>"; //echo gettype($two); //echo strtolower($two); $three = strtolower($two); //print_r($three); $string = implode(" ", array_unique(explode(" ", $three))); //echo gettype($string); echo $string; } exit();
