I have an array like this:
$a = array (
0 => array ( 'value' => 'America', ),
1 => array ( 'value' => 'England', ),
2 => array ( 'value' => 'Australia', ),
3 => array ( 'value' => 'America', ),
4 => array ( 'value' => 'England', ),
5 => array ( 'value' => 'Canada', ),
)
How can I remove the duplicate values so that I get this:
$a = array (
0 => array ( 'value' => 'America', ),
1 => array ( 'value' => 'England', ),
2 => array ( 'value' => 'Australia', ),
4 => array ( 'value' => 'Canada', ),
)
I tried using array_unique, but that doesn't work due to this array being multidimensional, I think.
Thanks!
