Delete row from php array

How can I remove an element from an array?

For example:

$data = Array('first' , 'second' , 'third');
array_delete($data[2]);

#$data would now read Array('first', 'second')

Does such a built-in function exist? Thanks.

Use the unset method:

unset($data[2]);

The above answers work. But here is what i got from the site listed below. I think its cool.

//deletes a number on index $idx in array and returns the new array  
function array_delete($idx,$array) {  
    unset($array[$idx]);  
    return (is_array($array)) ? array_values($array) : null;  
}
