I am wanting to add each user into an array and check for duplicates before I do.

 $spotcount = 10;    


for ($topuser_count = 0; $topuser_count < $spotcount; $topuser_count++)     //total spots
{

$spottop10 = $ids[$topuser_count];
$top_10 = $gowalla->getSpotInfo($spottop10);
$usercount = 0;
$c = 0;
$array = array();

foreach($top_10['top_10'] as $top10)        //loop each spot
{
    //$getuser = substr($top10['url'],7);       //strip the url
    $getuser = ltrim($top10['url'], " users/" );

    if ($usercount < 3)     //loop only certain number of top users
     {  
        if (($getuser != $userurl) && (array_search($getuser, $array) !== true)) {

            //echo " no duplicates! <br /><br />";
            echo ' <a href= "http://gowalla.com'.$top10['url'].'"><img width="90" height="90"  src= " '.$top10['image_url'].' " title="'.$top10['first_name'].'" alt="Error" /></a>     ';                              
            $array[$c++] = $getuser;



        }
        else {

            //echo "duplicate <br /><br />";
        }

    }
    $usercount++;
}
print_r($array);    


}

The previous code prints:

Array ( [0] => 62151 [1] => 204501 [2] => 209368 ) Array ( [0] => 62151 [1] => 33116 [2] => 122485 ) Array ( [0] => 120728 [1] => 205247 [2] => 33116 ) Array ( [0] => 150883 [1] => 248551 [2] => 248558 ) Array ( [0] => 157580 [1] => 77490 [2] => 52046 )

Which is wrong. It does check for duplicates, but only the contents of each foreach loop instead of the entire array. How is this if I am storing everything into $array?
