Dude. Use your common sense and the example I just provided:
foreach ($results as $key => $item)
{
if ($item == 'foo')
unset($results[$key]);
else ($item == 'bar')
$results[$key] = 'new value';
}
so using your example:
foreach ($results as $key => $item)
{
if ($item[0] == 'value1')
unset($results[$key][0]);
else ($item[0] == 'bar')
$results[$key][0] = 'value4';
}
But since you have a multidimensional array, you have to really do two loops
to be useful:
foreach ($results as $key => $item)
{
foreach ($item as $i => $value)
{
if ($value == 'value1')
unset($results[$key][$i])
else ($value == 'bar')
$results[$key][$i] = 'value4';
}
}
Or something to that effect, I just wrote that freehand, but you should get
the idea.
