Sorting Arrays and displaying unique records

Ok here is what is happening - I have built a script that scrapes a web page, parses out the HTML, and then puts the words into an array (explode).

Now I want to find just the unique values, and count how often they appear in the array... is this easy?

I have played around with some functions - but I am at a loss.

Thanks!

Have you tried [man]array_count_values/man?

yes - it returned something to the effect of

Array ([WORD] => 1 [WORD2] => 2 [WORD3] => 4)

I need to get it so that I can reference like this:

$var[$k]['word'] & $var[$k]['count']

Thanks!
