On 17 June 2009 22:12, tedd advised: -snip- Now, let's say you want to sort the $d array, but you also want the arrays $a, $b, and $c to be arranged in the same resultant order as $d.

For example, please follow this: Before sort of $d: $a = [apple, banana, grape, orange] $b = [100, 2111, 198, 150] $c = [red, yellow, purple, orange] $d = [100, 300, 11, 50] After sort of $d: $a = [grape, orange, apple, banana] $b = [198, 150, 100, 2111] $c = [purple, orange, red, yellow] $d = [11, 50, 100, 300]

array_multisort($d, $a, $b, $c) should do what you want, Cheers! Mike

Mike: Slick indeed! That's exactly what I was looking for (see subject line -- I was close). Here's the working example: http://www.webbytedd.com/bbbb/multisort/ Thanks to Rob and Daniel for also playing, better luck next time. :-) <- note smiley -- I do appreciate your time.
