Search and replace inside an associative array

Question

I need to search and replace inside an associative array.

ex:

$user = \"user1\"; // I\'ve updated this

$myarray = array(\"user1\" => \"search1\",         


        

Answer 1

There's a function for this : array_map().

// Using a lamba function, PHP 5.3 required
$newarray = array_map(
    function($v) { if ($v == 'search1') $v = 'search4'; return $v; },
    $myarray
);

If you don't want to use a lambda function, define a normal function or method and callback to it.
