Question

Please read the comments in the code. I need to pop the elements that match certain criteria

$popthisarray= array(12, 34);


main array

array
    0
    array
        'id' => int 12

    1
    array
        'id' => int 1456

    2
    array
        'id' => int 34

    3
    array
        'id' => int 534

I need to pop the elements from the main array that are in $popthisarray
I have

foreach($mainarray as $myarray){

// $myid will be either 12 0r 34

    if(in_array($my['id'],$mainarray)){

        //here I need to take the element out of main array
    }


}

Answer 1

You would like to remove all elements of the $mainarray, that have id value in the $popthisarray ?

foreach($mainarray as $k => $my) {
    if(in_array($my['id'], $popthisarray)) {
        unset($mainarray[$k]);
    }
}

If you wish to reorganise keys, use array_values:

$mainarray = array_values($mainarray);
