I figured it out, not what i'd wanted it to be, but it works, if anyone
can improve upon it, please let me know.
<?php
function array_key_replace($foo,$original,$replacement,$replacement_value) {
$bar=array();
foreach($foo as $key=>$value) {
if ($key==$original) {
$bar[$replacement]=$replacement_value;
}
else $bar[$key]=$value;
}
return $bar;
}
$foo=array("color"=>"blue","fruit"=>"apple","foo"=>"bar");
$foo=array_key_replace($foo,"fruit","car","pinto");
?>
Enjoy! ;)
