Bug description: Sorting arrays with norwegian letters
I think I have found a bug in the function 'sort'. It does not sort correct with norwegian
letters. The norwegian alphabeth is made of 29 letters. The three last ones are spesial for norway
(and sweden and denmark).
Heres a sample of our alphabeth:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzæøå
And here are some code...
<?
// List of norwegian names, with norwegian letters
$to_be_sorted = array(mamma, øyvind, sondre, værner, ærlend, odd, hedvig, åsmund, birgit);
sort($to_be_sorted);
for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($to_be_sorted); $i ++) {
echo $to_be_sorted[$i]."<br>\n";
}
?>
This prodused this putput:
birgit
hedvig
mamma
odd
sondre
værner
åsmund
ærlend
øyvind
But it should have been:
birgit
hedvig
mamma
odd
sondre
værner
ærlend
øyvind
åsmund
Yours Håkon Flatøy
PS: PHP is GREAT!
