php remove duplicates from array

In this tutorial, we will create a Delete Duplicate Object From Array using PHP. This code can eliminate multiple duplicate array objects when the user clicks the button. The system uses PHP array_unique, a particular built-in function that utilizes in finding and searching for a possible duplicate to absolutely delete an object. This is a user-friendly kind of program feel free to modify it.

We will be using PHP as a scripting language and interpreter that is used primarily on any web server, including camp, wamp, etc. It is being used to any popular websites, and it has a modern technology that can easily be used by the next generation.

Getting Started:

First, you have to download & install XAMPP or any local server that runs PHP scripts. Here’s the link for the XAMPP server https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html.

And, this is the link for the bootstrap that I used for the layout design https://getbootstrap.com/.

Creating The Interface

This is where we will create a simple form for our application. To create a copy of the way and write it into your text editor, then save it as index.php.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8" name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"/>
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css"/>
    </head>
<body>
    <nav class="navbar navbar-default">
        <div class="container-fluid">
            <a class="navbar-brand" href="https://sourcecodester.com">Sourcecodester</a>
        </div>
    </nav>
    <div class="col-md-3"></div>
    <div class="col-md-6 well">
        <h3 class="text-primary">PHP - Delete Duplicate Object From Array</h3>
        <hr style="border-top:1px dotted #ccc;"/>
        <div class="col-md-4">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" id="delete"></span> Delete Objects</button>
        </div>
        <div class="col-md-8">
            <form>
                <div>
                    <label>List of Array</label>
                    <div id="result"></div>
                </div>
            </form>
        </div>
    </div>
</body>

Creating the Main Function

This code contains the main function of the application. This code will delete duplicate array object when the button is clicked. To make this just copy and write these block of codes below inside the text editor, then save it as shown below.
data.php

<?php
    $array = array("Ferrari", "Suzuki", "Mustang", "Suzuki", "Ferrari");
    if(ISSET($_POST['res'])){
        echo "<pre>";
        print_r($array);
        echo "</pre>";
    }
 
?>

delete.php

<?php
    $array = array("Ferrari", "Suzuki", "Mustang", "Suzuki", "Ferrari");
    if(ISSET($_POST['res'])){
        $result = array_unique($array);
        echo "<pre>";
        print_r($result);
        echo "</pre>";
    }
 
?>

script.js
Note: To make this script work make sure you save this file inside the js directory.

$(document).ready(function(){
 
    displayData();
 
    function displayData(){
        $.ajax({
            url: "data.php",
            type: "POST",
            data: {res: 1},
            success: function(data){
                $('#result').html(data);
            }
        });
    }
 
    $('#delete').on('click', function(){	
        $.ajax({
            url: "delete.php",
            type: "POST",
            data: {res: 1},
            success: function(data){
                $('#result').html("<center><h4>Clearing duplicate objects...</h4></center>");
                $('#delete').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
                setTimeout(function(){
                    $('#delete').removeAttr('disabled');
                    $('#result').html(data);
                }, 3000);
            }
        });
    });
});
