Re: Sorting a 2 dimension array

Hi, Why don't you sort the query to MYSQL and have the records delivered in the order you want them? HTH Steve At 5:31 PM +0930 5/10/01, John Clarke wrote:

I would like to sort a 2 dimensional array based on the value of one of the keys of each element. I have an array returned from a msql query which contains 10 records/elements and each record 5 fields/keys. I would like to sort the records based on the value of a particular field in each record. Is this possible.? I have looked thru all the array functions but cannot seem to find anything that allows me to do this. I dont want to write a separate peice of code to compare all of these elements and their values and then place them into a new array in the correct order if there is a simpler way of achieving it. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
