As for the example from the blogpost: I have just tested it once more and it worked as it should.

btw. the bug report was closed ("was never intended to work with multi-dimensional arrays") but at least the documentation has been updated ]]> http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment1857 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment1857 Dominik Jungowski Fri, 12 Jun 2009 14:46:32 +0000 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment7308 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment7308 zeromatrix Sun, 15 Nov 2009 00:05:05 +0000 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment8664 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment8664 Thu, 17 Dec 2009 06:43:24 +0000 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment10886 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment10886 Mukul Fri, 12 Feb 2010 12:12:29 +0000 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment11726 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment11726 John Flynn Mon, 01 Mar 2010 19:03:27 +0000 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment13870 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment13870 Christian Fri, 30 Apr 2010 14:04:47 +0000 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment13874 http://www.phpdevblog.net/2009/01/using-array-unique-with-multidimensional-arrays.html#comment13874 Christian Fri, 30 Apr 2010 16:03:16 +0000
Not sure if it's a function limit or some other server/PHP limitation.

I wrote this code. It has the option to preserve keys, but default is non preserving keys. It is an optional parameter.

function arrayUnique($array, $preserveKeys = false) {
$newArray = array();
$newKeys = array();

// Add items to new array and remove doubles
foreach($array as $key => $item) {
$newArray[serialize($item)] = $item;
$newKeys[] = $key;
}

// Set keys
if($preserveKeys) {
array_combine($newKeys, $newArray);
} else {
$newArray = array_values($newArray);
}

return $newArray;
