Question

I have the following Array :

Array
{
    [0]=>"www.abc.com/directory/test";
    [1]=>"www.abc.com/test";
    [2]=>"www.abc.com/directory/test";
    [3]=>"www.abc.com/test";
}

I only want the items that have something in middle in URL like /directory/ and unset the items that do not have that.

Output should be like:

Array
{
   [0]=>"www.abc.com/directory/test";                           
   [1]=>"www.abc.com/directory/test";
}

Answer 1

An example without closures. Sometimes you just need to understand the basics first, before you can move on to the neater stuff.

$newArray = array();

foreach($array as $value) {
  if ( strpos( $value, '/directory/') ) {
     $newArray[] = $value;
  }
}
