How to delete array element in function

I'm trying to delete an array element in a function. The manual for unset says to use $GLOBALS but that isn't working for some reason. The following is basically what I am doing. But when I run it, the original array has not been changed. Would someone please point out my mistake?

PHP Code:


			
function DeleteElement($id, $myArray)

{

  for ($i=0; $i < count($myArray); ++$i)

  {

     if ($id == $myArray[$i]['id'])

     {  

        unset($GLOBALS["myArray[$i]"]);

     }

  }

}          



$myArray = 

 Array

(

    [0] => Array

        (

            [id] => 1988

        )



    [1] => Array

        (

            [id] => 3444

        )

}



DeleteElement(1988, $myArray);
