ok, this is what I eventually came up with... is there a smoother way?

$indexer=0;
foreach (array_keys($links) as $linkKey){
$collecter[$indexer]=$linkKey;
$indexer++;
}
foreach (array_keys($collecter) as $linkKey){
if ($links[$collecter[$linkKey]]){
$linksHolder[$linkKey]=$links[$collecter[$linkKey]];}
if ($gallery[$collecter[$linkKey]]){
$galleryHolder[$linkKey]=$gallery[$collecter[$linkKey]];}
}
$links=$linksHolder;$gallery=$galleryHolder;
