Note Submitter: p dot leblanc at caplaser dot fr Reason: bad code ---- <?php /* A simple way to use array_multisort() to sort a multidimensional array : Here is how I managed to alphabetically sort an array of french words, with accents. I wanted characters like 'é' or 'è' or 'ê' to be treated as simple 'e', otherwise these characters would appear after 'z' in alphabetical order. */ $words = array ('école', 'emploi', 'âtre', 'ennui', 'écrêmé', 'émoi', 'echo', 'alisé');// --- the array --- $search = array ('/é/','/è/','/ê/','/â/','/à/','/ô/'); $replace = array ('e','e','e','a','a','o'); for ($i=0; $i<count($words); $i++){ $words2[$i][0] = preg_replace($search, $replace, $words [$i]); // --- without accents --- $words 2[$i][1] = $words [$i]; // --- with accents --- } array_multisort($words2); for ($i=0; $i<count($words2); $i++){ $words[$i] = $words2[$i][1]; } /* Now the array would be as follows : $words = array ('alisé', 'âtre', 'echo', 'école', 'écrêmé', 'émoi','emploi', ennui'); */ ?>
