     <function>array_diff_uassoc</function> returns an <type>array</type>
     containing all the values from <parameter>array1</parameter>
     that are not present in any of the other arguments.
     Note that the keys are used in the comparison unlike
     <function>array_diff</function>.
    </para>
    <para>
     This comparison is done by a user supplied callback function.
     It must return an integer less than, equal
     to, or greater than zero if the first argument is considered to
     be respectively less than, equal to, or greater than the
     second. This is unlike <function>array_diff_assoc</function> where an
     internal function for comparing the indices is used.

    <simpara>
     In our example above you see the <literal>"a" =&gt; "green"</literal>
     pair is present in both arrays and thus it is not in the ouput from the
     function. Unlike this, the pair <literal>0 =&gt; "red"</literal>
     is in the ouput because in the second argument <literal>"red"</literal>
     has key which is <literal>1</literal>.
    </simpara>
    <simpara>
     The equality of 2 indices is checked by the user supplied callback function.
    </simpara>
    <note>
     <simpara>
      Please note that this function only checks one dimension of a n-dimensional
      array. Of course you can check deeper dimensions by using, for example,
      <literal>array_diff_uassoc($array1[0], $array2[0], "key_compare_func");</literal>.
