Note Submitter: memzap at gmail dot com ---- I am having an issue trying to figure out how to sort an array. Here is the issue. I am trying to put titles of a book into an array and sort by the first field of a flat database which is the title. When I sort it sorts titles starting with "a" at the top of course, and "the" at the end where it should be. I would like to exlude certain words before the sort but have them back on the display of the Title. I tried to write out code to do this but it seemed to explode into a huge program. I was wondering if anyone has a simple way of doing this. while ( ! feof( $fp ) ) { $m14line[] = fgets( $fp, 1024 ); sort($m14line); list($m14title1, $m14titleurl1, $m14rating1) = split ('\|', $line[0]); list($m14title1, $m14titleurl1, $m14rating1) = split ('\|', $line[1]); list($m14title1, $m14titleurl1, $m14rating1) = split ('\|', $line[2]); list($m14title1, $m14titleurl1, $m14rating1) = split ('\|', $line[3]); } ?> This is a sample of the display code I currently have. This doesn't do anything special other than pull the array in and sort by the first word of the Title. I am looking to skip any words that I choose to skip, like for instance the word "the" in all cases. Thanks for any help in advance.
