array_splice, split an array into 2 arrays. The returned arrays is the 2nd argument actually and the used array e.g $input here contains the 1st argument of array, e.g



<?php

$input = array("red", "green", "blue", "yellow");

print_r(array_splice($input, 3)); // Array ( [0] => yellow )  

print_r($input); //Array ( [0] => red [1] => green [2] => blue )

?>



if you want to replace any array value do simple like that,



first search the array index you want to replace



<?php $index = array_search('green', $input);// index = 1 ?>



and then use it as according to the definition



<?php

array_splice($input, $index, 1, array('mygreeen')); //Array ( [0] => red [1] => mygreeen [2] => blue [3] => yellow ) 

?>



so here green is replaced by mygreen.



here 1 in array_splice above represent the number of items to be replaced. so here start at index '1' and replaced only one item which is 'green'
