array destroy / unset?

[knelson]

hello-

simple problem, i'm sure. simple solutions aren't working so far.

1. query, then loop returns an array full of numerous values..in this case, catalog edition names.

   while(OCIFetch($sql_statement5))
   {
   $init_edition_results[] = OCIResult($sql_statement5, "MD_ABRV");
   }
   $unique_edition_results = array_unique($init_edition_results);
   

2. the above code is also part of a WHILE statement that returns multiple results. in this case, item numbers.

Problem: After the first item number result, I get the same set of editions for each number. The array is obviously growing and displaying the grand total and not the unique results.

How do I vaporize the array before the query initiates? I've tried setting "$unique_edition_results" to nothing, tried unset, tried what seems like the obvious and trivial solutions.

you help is greatly appreciated. thanks.

Have you tried initializing it?

something like:

$array = array(); // initializes to empty array
