这是一个老问题，但我在2014年发表了一篇评论，经常回到这个问题。我想我应该留下一个完整的答案。这不是最短的解决方案，但很容易理解。

在关联数组中插入一个新值，在有编号的位置，保留键并保持顺序。

$columns = array(
    'id' => 'ID',
    'name' => 'Name',
    'email' => 'Email',
    'count' => 'Number of posts'
);

$columns = array_merge(
    array_slice( $columns, 0, 3, true ),     // The first 3 items from the old array
    array( 'subscribed' => 'Subscribed' ),   // New value to add after the 3rd item
    array_slice( $columns, 3, null, true )   // Other items after the 3rd
);

print_r( $columns );

/*
Array ( 
    [id] => ID 
    [name] => Name 
    [email] => Email 
    [subscribed] => Subscribed 
    [count] => Number of posts 
)
*/

我最近写了一个函数来做一些类似于你正在尝试的事情，这与clasvdb的答案类似。

function magic_insert($index,$value,$input_array ) {
  if (isset($input_array[$index])) {
    $output_array = array($index=>$value);
    foreach($input_array as $k=>$v) {
      if ($k<$index) {
        $output_array[$k] = $v;
      } else {
        if (isset($output_array[$k]) ) {
          $output_array[$k+1] = $v;
        } else {
          $output_array[$k] = $v;
        }
      } 
    }

  } else {
    $output_array = $input_array;
    $output_array[$index] = $value;
  }
  ksort($output_array);
  return $output_array;
}

基本上，它在一个特定的点插入，但通过向下移动所有项来避免覆盖。

$list = array(
'Tunisia' => 'Tunis',
'Germany' => 'Berlin',
'Italy' => 'Rom',
'Egypt' => 'Cairo'
);
$afterIndex = 2;
$newVal= array('Palestine' => 'Jerusalem');

$newList = array_merge(array_slice($list,0,$afterIndex+1), $newVal,array_slice($list,$afterIndex+1));

这里有一个你可以使用的简单函数。只要插进去就行了。

这是按索引插入，而不是按值插入。

您可以选择传递该数组，或者使用已经声明的数组。

较新的、较短的版本:

   function insert($array, $index, $val)
   {
       $size = count($array); //because I am going to use this more than one time
       if (!is_int($index) || $index < 0 || $index > $size)
       {
           return -1;
       }
       else
       {
           $temp   = array_slice($array, 0, $index);
           $temp[] = $val;
           return array_merge($temp, array_slice($array, $index, $size));
       }
   }

更老、更长的版本:

  function insert($array, $index, $val) { //function decleration
    $temp = array(); // this temp array will hold the value 
    $size = count($array); //because I am going to use this more than one time
    // Validation -- validate if index value is proper (you can omit this part)       
        if (!is_int($index) || $index < 0 || $index > $size) {
            echo "Error: Wrong index at Insert. Index: " . $index . " Current Size: " . $size;
            echo "<br/>";
            return false;
        }    
    //here is the actual insertion code
    //slice part of the array from 0 to insertion index
    $temp = array_slice($array, 0, $index);//e.g index=5, then slice will result elements [0-4]
    //add the value at the end of the temp array// at the insertion index e.g 5
    array_push($temp, $val);
    //reconnect the remaining part of the array to the current temp
    $temp = array_merge($temp, array_slice($array, $index, $size)); 
    $array = $temp;//swap// no need for this if you pass the array cuz you can simply return $temp, but, if u r using a class array for example, this is useful. 
  
     return $array; // you can return $temp instead if you don't use class array
}

使用的例子:

//1
$result = insert(array(1,2,3,4,5),0, 0);
echo "<pre>";
echo "<br/>";
print_r($result);
echo "</pre>";
//2
$result = insert(array(1,2,3,4,5),2, "a");
echo "<pre>";
print_r($result);
echo "</pre>";
//3
$result = insert(array(1,2,3,4,5) ,4, "b");
echo "<pre>";
print_r($result);
echo "</pre>";
//4
$result = insert(array(1,2,3,4,5),5, 6);
echo "<pre>";
echo "<br/>";
print_r($result);
echo "</pre>";

预期结果:

//1
Array
(
    [0] => 0
    [1] => 1
    [2] => 2
    [3] => 3
    [4] => 4
    [5] => 5
)
//2
Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 2
    [2] => a
    [3] => 3
    [4] => 4
    [5] => 5
)
//3
Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 2
    [2] => 3
    [3] => 4
    [4] => b
    [5] => 5
)

//4
Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 2
    [2] => 3
    [3] => 4
    [4] => 5
    [5] => 6
)

非常简单的2个字符串回答你的问题:

$array_1 = array(
  '0' => 'zero',
  '1' => 'one',
  '2' => 'two',
  '3' => 'three',
);

首先，你用array_splice向第三个元素插入任何东西，然后给这个元素赋值:

array_splice($array_1, 3, 0 , true);
$array_1[3] = array('sample_key' => 'sample_value');

对于第一个数组，使用array_splice():

$array_1 = array(
  '0' => 'zero',
  '1' => 'one',
  '2' => 'two',
  '3' => 'three',
);

array_splice($array_1, 3, 0, 'more');
print_r($array_1);

输出:

Array(
    [0] => zero
    [1] => one
    [2] => two
    [3] => more
    [4] => three
)

对于第二个，没有顺序，所以你只需要做:

$array_2['more'] = '2.5';
print_r($array_2);

把钥匙按你想要的排序。
