Array Distinct

[harris97]

I have problem like this. Let's say i have several arrays like this :
$name[1][0]="John";
$name[2][0]="Mark";
$name[3][0]="John";
$name[4][0]="Mark";

My question is how to display them in distinct mode to be like this :

John
Mark

so..when we "echo" those arrays, will only display John and Mark.

Any help is very appreciated. Thanks.

Question: are you really only storing one value in the second dimension?

one simple way is to loop through the array's and put each name into a new array and use array_unique() on that.
