Hi All ! Please HELPPPPP !!! I'm translating a Perl code to a PHP code and I 've and array of names (extracted froma MySQL database) something like this: $categName[0] = "Ziggy"; $categName[1] = "Andy"; $categName[2] = "Ian"; $categName[3] = "Peter"; .... The Perl code call a sort function on this way: $categAlpha = sort { $categName[$a] cmp categName[$b] } (0..$#categname); and I get the following: $categAlpha[0] = 1; $categAlpha[1] = 2; $categAlpha[2] = 3; $categAlpha[3] = 0; As you can see the perl sort function make a sort on the categName array by name and return and ordered array of the original ID's on the cateAlpha array. I could not found a PHP function capable of do the some. Could somebody help me ? Thanks, Javier
