How to use an anonymous array to sort any associative array by an arbitrary key (or nested key): $order = -1; # -1 = Ascending. Use 1 for descending. $sortby = "['key1']['subkey']"; $mysort = create_function('$a,$b', "\$a1=\$a$sortby;\$b1=\$b$sortby; if (\$a1==\$b1) return 0; else return (\$a1<\$b1) ? $order : 0- $ order;"); uasort($assocarray, $mysort); You can use this in a recursive function if necessary (which is why I developed it). --was-- How to use an anonymous array to sort any associative array by an arbitrary key (or nested key): $order = -1; # -1 = Ascending.
