Here is a quick and dirty way to shuffle associative arrays and not loose the key value relationship
:
function assc_shuffle($orig_array) {
for($i=0;$i < count($orig_array);$i++) {
$map[] = $i;
}
shuffle($map);
foreach($map as $mk=>$mv) {
$wait=0;
foreach($orig_array as $ok=>$ov) {
if ($mv == $wait) {
$proc_array[$ok] = $ov;
break;
}
$wait++;
}
}
return $proc_array;
}
Hope this help someone out.
