A quick question:

what function is used to remove an array element from an array?  Like 
array_pop(), except one by which I can refer to the element by its 
associative index rather than just the last element of the array.


For more detail with what I'm doing, I have two versions of a <select> 
listbox -- one that includes an <option> with selected="yes" (if the 
user is calling this page from submitting a form).  The other version is 
for users who are NOT calling this page from submitting a form, i.e. for 
the first time.

I would like, in the first version (if ($formfilled)), to REMOVE the 
element $temprow['div_name'] from the array $temprow so that it doesn't 
appear a second time (in the WHILE loop), since it has already been 
echoed above the WHILE loop.

Is this even possible?


$home_div_id = $myrow['home_div_id']; // (from another SQL query
$div_name = $myrow['div_name'];       // earlier in the script)

$tempsql = "SELECT divisions.div_name, divisions.div_id
             FROM divisions";
$tempresult = mysql_query($tempsql, $db);
$temprow = mysql_fetch_array($tempresult);
        
if ($formfilled) {                   // if this page is called with
                                      // the form fields filled, grab
                                      // $home_div_id and make it
                                      // selected="yes"
     echo "<select name=\"home_div_id\">\n";
     echo "<option value=\"$home_div_id\" 
selected=\"yes\">$div_name</option>\n";
     while ($temprow = mysql_fetch_array($tempresult)) {
         echo "<option value=\"" . $temprow['div_id']
               . "\">" . $temprow['div_name'] . "</option>\n";
     }
     echo "</select>\n";
} else {                             // if this page is called with
                                      // blank form fields, same thing
                                      // except no "selected" attribute
     echo "<select name=\"home_div_id\">\n";
     while ($temprow = mysql_fetch_array($tempresult)) {
         echo "<option value=\"" . $temprow['div_id']
               . "\">" . $temprow['div_name'] . "</option>\n";
     }
     echo "</select>\n";
}
