An improvement on the very nice code submitted by alex [at] vkpb [dot] com. This will preserve the keys if the array is numeric: function SortDataSet($aArray, $sField, $bDescending = false) { $bIsNumeric = IsNumeric($aArray); $aKeys = array_keys($aArray); $nSize = sizeof($aArray); for ($nIndex = 0; $nIndex < $nSize - 1; $nIndex++) { $nMinIndex = $nIndex; $objMinValue = $aArray[$aKeys[$nIndex]][$sField]; $sKey = $aKeys[$nIndex]; for ($nSortIndex = $nIndex + 1; $nSortIndex < $nSize; ++$nSortIndex) { if ($aArray[$aKeys[$nSortIndex]][$sField] < $objMinValue) { $nMinIndex = $nSortIndex; $sKey = $aKeys[$nSortIndex]; $objMinValue = $aArray[$aKeys[$nSortIndex]][$sField]; } } $aKeys[$nMinIndex] = $aKeys[$nIndex]; $aKeys[$nIndex] = $sKey; } $aReturn = array(); for($nSortIndex = 0; $nSortIndex < $nSize; ++$nSortIndex) { $nIndex = $bDescending ? $nSize - $nSortIndex - 1: $nSortIndex; $aReturn[$aKeys[$nIndex]] = $aArray[$aKeys[$nIndex]]; } return $bIsNumeric ? array_values($aReturn) : $aReturn; } function IsNumeric($aArray) { $aKeys = array_keys($aArray); for ($nIndex = 0; $nIndex < sizeof($aKeys); $nIndex++) { if (!is_int($aKeys[$nIndex]) || ($aKeys[$nIndex] != $nIndex)) { return false; } } return true; } ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 64.179.48.194 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sort.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/73919 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73919/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73919/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73919/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73919/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73919/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73919/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73919 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/73919 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
