If you have a multi_dimensional array and you want a case-insensitive sort, use the combination of
fucntions below... I am sure there is a way you could write this all in one function, but I am lazy
right now (its friday).
$str_col_tosort = 2;
$milti_dim_array = addLowerCaseElem($milti_dim_array,$str_col_tosort );
$milti_dim_array= array_csort($milti_dim_array,'sortonme');
function addLowerCaseElem($data_array, $col_tosort){
$i = 1;
foreach($data_array as $data){
$data_array[$i]['sortonme'] = strtolower(print_r($data_array[$i][$col_tosort],true));
$i++;
}
return $data_array;
}
function array_csort($marray, $column) { //coded by Ichier2003
foreach ($marray as $row) {
$sortarr[] = $row[$column];
}
array_multisort($sortarr, $marray);
return $marray;
}
