Here is a faster version than those shown below, with optimisation for the case when only two arrays are passed. In my tests with a 10000 item first array and a 5000 item second array (run 20 times) this function ran in 1.89 seconds compared with 2.66 for the version posted by dak. For a three array case, same as above but with the third array containing 3333 values, the timing is 3.25 for this version compared with 3.7 for dak's version.
<?php
if (!function_exists('array_intersect_key'))
{
function array_intersect_key($isec, $keys)
{
$argc = func_num_args();
if ($argc > 2)
{
for ($i = 1; !empty($isec) && $i < $argc; $i++)
{
$arr = func_get_arg($i);
foreach (array_keys($isec) as $key)
{
if (!isset($arr[$key]))
{
unset($isec[$key]);
}
}
}
return $isec;
}
else
{
$res = array();
foreach (array_keys($isec) as $key)
{
if (isset($keys[$key]))
{
$res[$key] = $isec[$key];
}
}
return $res;
}
}
