[RESOLVED] Insert Into Array

[RobDog888]

I need to insert a couple of new items into an existing populated array but I want to insert them in a particular position that may not always be the same.

I started out using array_push but that just appends the array. I figure some kind of function that will iterate through the array looking for a match and then do the insert.

Thanks

array_push($myitems, 'item6', 'item7', 'item8');

Nope, didnt have but I looked through the entire list and nothing pre-existing for this.

So if this was vb I would iterate through the array until I found the position where I wanted my new items inserted. Then take that first part of the array and insert it into a temp array. Take the second half and place that into another temp array. Then merge the three arrays with my insertion array as the second array to merge. Final output would go back into the original array.

Ok ho do in php

why does it need to be in a special order? here is what array_push does

your array - "item1", "item2", "item3"

add - "item8", "item9"

new array - "item1", "item2", "item3", "item8", "item9"

Yes, I know what array_push does as I mentioned it appends to the end of an array. Well I got help already on this and am returning to resolve

Im using array_slice, array_search, and array_merge to do the task laidout in post #3.
