Does anyone have an example of code that does this, I have been trying to
decipher the instructions on the use of uasort but it does not make a hole
lot of sense. They are using static keys and sorting by one of the array
elements of each of there static keys. It does not seem like one should have
to do it this way. I need it to go through each key and sort the keys based
on a value in the array held in that key.
Thanks
Mike

Good day,
uasort() should do what you need.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.uasort.php
There's an example for the usort function that does something similar to
what you want, in fact.

What I am trying to do is sort a array of arrays but I want to sort by one
of the pieces of data stored in the arrays inside the array. For example;
$data[blue] = array("name", "age", "time", "3");
$data[green] = array("name", "age", "time", "7");
$data[red] = array("name", "age", "time", "6");
$data[yellow] = array("name", "age", "time", "2");
$data[white] = array("name", "age", "time", "1");
$data[black] = array("name", "age", "time", "9");
I want to be able to sort this array of arrays by the very last element, the
numbers.
