If you would actually look at the bug, you'd notice that "a a" id sortes as before "a a", which is inconsistent with the sorting of "a b" and "a b". Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-25 15:40:30] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php ' ' is 10 and 'b' is 98, make your own conclustions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-25 14:02:05] phpbug at reuben dot com Description: ------------ natsort (and related functions like strnatcmp) appear to collapse all white space chars into just one space, so that 'a a' sorts at the same level as 'a a' (so the order of the returned sort is not determined), while it should sort one before the other (which one is more "natural" is up for discussion, but it shouldn't randomly return one or the other). Reproduce code: --------------- $array = array('a b','a a','a a','aa','a b','ab'); natsort($array); echo "<pre>"; foreach ($array as $val) echo "$val\n"; echo "</pre>"; Expected result: ---------------- Should print: aa ab a a a b a a a b -OR- aa a a a a ab a b a b Actual result: -------------- Actually prints (changes order if you change order in array definition): aa a a a a ab a b a b ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26412&edit=1
