note 100279 modified in function.uasort by danbrown

I tried using some of the previous built multisorts, but they weren't working as expected. So, I made my own Class, and it seems to work wonderfully. Here is the code: <?php /************************************ * Allows sorting multi-dimensional * arrays by a specific key and in * asc or desc order **/ class multiSort { var $key; //key in your array //runs the sort, and returns sorted array function run ($myarray, $key_to_sort, $type_of_sort = '') { $this->key = $key_to_sort; if ($type_of_sort == 'desc') uasort($myarray, array($this, 'myreverse_compare')); else uasort($myarray, array($this, 'mycompare')); return $myarray; } //for ascending order function mycompare($x, $y) { if ( $x[$this->key] == $y[$this->key] ) return 0; else if ( $x[$this->key] < $y[$this->key] ) return -1; else return 1; } //for descending order function myreverse_compare($x, $y) { if ( $x[$this->key] == $y[$this->key] ) return 0; else if ( $x[$this->key] > $y[$this->key] ) return -1; else return 1; } } ?> --was-- I tried using some of the previous built multisorts (specifically the one by Alt_F4 on 10-Oct-2009 03:34), but they weren't working as expected.
