Remove multiple elements from array in Javascript/jQuery

There's always the plain old for loop:

var valuesArr = ["v1","v2","v3","v4","v5"],
    removeValFromIndex = [0,2,4];    

for (var i = removeValFromIndex.length -1; i >= 0; i--)
   valuesArr.splice(removeValFromIndex[i],1);

Go through removeValFromIndex in reverse order and you can .splice() without messing up the indexes of the yet-to-be-removed items.

Note in the above I've used the array-literal syntax with square brackets to declare the two arrays. This is the recommended syntax because new Array() use is potentially confusing given that it responds differently depending on how many parameters you pass in.

EDIT: Just saw your comment on another answer about the array of indexes not necessarily being in any particular order. If that's the case just sort it into descending order before you start:

removeValFromIndex.sort(function(a,b){ return b - a; });

And follow that with whatever looping / $.each() / etc. method you like.

Here is one that I use when not going with lodash/underscore:

while(IndexesToBeRemoved.length) {
    elements.splice(IndexesToBeRemoved.pop(), 1);
}

I suggest you use Array.prototype.filter

var valuesArr = ["v1","v2","v3","v4","v5"];
var removeValFrom = [0, 2, 4];
valuesArr = valuesArr.filter(function(value, index) {
     return removeValFrom.indexOf(index) == -1;
})
