Read them into an array then sort the array.


while more files
{
  get file name
  $arrFilenames[] = $filename;
  $arrFilenames = array_sort($arrFilenames);
}

The above sorts the array each time a file is read as you requested, 
however its more efficient to read them all in then sort

while more files
{
   get file name
   $arrFilenames[] = $filename;
}

$arrFilenames = array_sort($arrFilenames);

-Stewart;
