I could make that last statement just a bit simpler: function cmpcountry($a, $b) {

        $country1 = ($a['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $a['country'];
        $country2 = ($b['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $b['country'];

        return ($country1 > '' && $country1 < $country2) ? -1 : 1;

}

*Sigh* I shouldn't post this late at night. This is the comparison function that works for me: function cmpcountry($a, $b) {

        $country1 = ($a['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $a['country'];
        $country2 = ($b['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $b['country'];

        return ($country1 < $country2) ? -1 : 1;
