One of the ways to get intersection of two arrays is as follows:
<?php
function arrayIntersect( $primary_array, $secondary_array ) {
if ( !is_array( $primary_array ) || !is_array( $secondary_array ) ) {
return false;
}
if ( !empty( $primary_array ) ) {
foreach( $primary_array as $key => $value ) {
if ( !isset( $secondary_array[$key] ) ) {
unset( $primary_array[$key] );
} else {
if ( serialize( $secondary_array[$key] ) != serialize( $value ) ) {
unset( $primary_array[$key] );
}
}
}
return $primary_array;
} else {
return array();
}
}
?>
It would pay attention to both keys and values even if values would be arrays as well. One important note is that if value of $primary_array is yet another array, its order of key & value pairs becomes important for matching.
