I have seen plenty of posts on uploading files from iphone to a server but are there any considerations that need to be factored into code with this functionality.

Something easy like CI (this means mandatory good, easy, up to date documentation). But also with some more features than CI. Yii has lots of features, but it is also more complex (and it kind of forces you to have to use lots of it features).

I'm sure this is an extremely obvious question, and that there's a function that does exactly this, but I can't seem to find it. In PHP, I'd like to know if my array has duplicates in it, as efficiently as possible. I don't want to remove them like array_unique does, and I don't particularly want to run array_unique and compare it to the...
