moving the value of am array down the list

[benjy]

ok i dont really know how to explain this but this is what i want to to, say i have a array like the one below which has different types of pets in it

<?

$pets[1] = "dogs";
$pets[2] = "cats";
$pets[3] = "Fish";
$pets[4] = "Horse";

?>

ok whats going to happen is a user is going to suggest another type of pet and i want a form to submit it to this file and add it to this array, but i want the new pet at the top of the array, and the pet in $pets[1] would then be in $pets[2] and then $pets[2] would move into $pets[3], and so on and so fourth

You can use array_unshift() for that.

Note that in your example you are using an associative array, you might want to use:

$pets[0] = "dogs";
$pets[1] = "cats";
$pets[2] = "Fish";
$pets[3] = "Horse";

instead.
