note 68539 added to function.array-multisort

If you are looking for a date sorting function on multidimensional arrays this works for me. <? $new_array = array('0'=>array('dd'=>'11', 'mm'=>'12', 'yy'=>'2006'), '1'=>array('dd'=>'08', 'mm'=>'02', 'yy'=>'2004'), '2'=>array('dd'=>'20', 'mm'=>'08', 'yy'=>'2080')); foreach($new_array as $res) { $sortDay[] = $res['dd']; } array_multisort($sortDay, SORT_ASC, $new_array); foreach($new_array as $res) { $sortYearMonth[] = $res['yy'].$res['mm']; } array_multisort($sortYearMonth, SORT_ASC, $new_array); print_r($new_array); ?> Please note it does require that the day and month is a two digit number, I suggest using a strpad if you need to, also numbers not enclosed in ' ' will not work. ---- Server IP: 83.138.144.80 Probable Submitter: 81.158.133.2 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-multisort.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/68539 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68539/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68539/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68539/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68539/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68539/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68539/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68539 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/68539 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
