How to delete values in two dimensional array (PHP)?

I have an array which looks like

        $cclArray[0]['url']='test.html';
        $cclArray[0]['entity_id']=9;
        $cclArray[1]['url']='test1.html';
        $cclArray[1]['entity_id']=10;
        $cclArray[2]['url']='test2.html';
        $cclArray[2]['entity_id']=11;

if i would like to remove a specific array, for example if i want to delete the array element with 'url'='test1.html' .. how do i do it?

Thanks a lot for helping.

If you are using PHP >5.3 you can do it simply like this:

$cclArray = array_filter($cclArray, function ($var) {
    return $var['url'] != 'test1.html';
});

for($i=0; $i<count($cclArray); $i++){
    if('test1.html' === $cclArray[$i]['url']){
        array_splice($cclArray, $i, 1);
    }
}

This is better but remember that unset() does not remove actual element it just sets it to null. If you want it to be complete gone, then after the unset() you should also do this: $cclArray = array_filter($cclArray);

Or you can do this in order to complete remove the array element instead of just unsetting it

for($i=0; $i<count($cclArray); $i++){
if('test1.html' === $cclArray[$i]['url']){
array_splice($cclArray, $i, 1);
}

}

foreach($cclArray as $key=>$val){
  if($val['url'] == 'test1.html'){
   unset($cclArray[$key]);
  }
}

I think this is it.

if you make your array this way

    $cclArray['test.html'] = 9;
    $cclArray['test1.html'] = 10;
    $cclArray['test2.html'] = 11;

it will be possible to delete with just

$url = 'test.html';
unset($cclArray[$url]);

foreach ( $cclArray as $k => $array ) {
    if ( $array['url'] == 'test1.html' ) {
        unset($cclArray[$k]);
    }
}

for ($i=0;$i<count($cclArray);$i++)
  if($cclArray[$i]['url']=='test.html') unset($cclArray[$i]['url'])
