delete a value from an array

[Northern Flame]

is there a function that deletes a value from an array?

 

so that if i had

<?php

$array = array('value', 'val', 'random', 'string');

$delete = 'val';

?>

 

how do i delete val, which is stored in $delete, from the array?

or, if you know the key of the element to remove, use unset()

 

<?php
$val = 2;

$a = array(1,2,3,4,5);

$key = array_search($val,$a);

unset ($a[$key]);

echo '<pre>', print_r($a, true), '</pre>';
?>
