Re: Array Sorting

Use usort. This function should do the work:

Hey thanks! That worked like a charm, once I figured out that making the comparison < instead of > I would get an ascending sort instead of the descending one. Now, can I do multiple sorts? Like, sort on "cat" first, "manufacturer" next, and "title last"? Here's the array structure again: $i = 0;

$item[$i] = array( 'link'         => 'http://...',
                  'image'        => '/images/image.jpg',
                  'title'        => 'some title',
                  'price'        => '$14.00',
                  'cat'          => 'Frames',
                  'author'       => 'Pinochio',
                  'artist'       => '',
                  'asin'         => '010101',
                  'manufacturer' => 'Post'
                 ); $i++;
$item[$i] = array( 'link'         => 'http://...',
                  'image'        => '/images/something.jpg',
                  'title'        => 'this is fun',
                  'price'        => '$2.99',
                  'cat'          => 'Card',
                  'author'       => 'Mickey',
                  'artist'       => '',
                  'asin'         => '1116221',
                  'manufacturer' => 'Kraft'
                 ); $i++;
