here is the code
<?php
session_start();
if(isset($_SESSION['del'])) { // to make sure array is not set again as in question
unset($_SESSION['del'][0]); // remove the first element
$_SESSION['del'] = array_values($_SESSION['del']); // to shift rest of the elements one location left for making indexes starts from 0
} else { // set session array only once
$_SESSION['del']=array("a1","a2","a3","a4","a5");
}
echo implode(" ",$_SESSION['del']); // print results
?>
