You need array_multisort(): see http:///www.php.net/array_multisort or  
http:///ro.php.net/array_multisort (site partially translated into Romanian, but 
unfortunately not this page!).

Cheers!

[PHP-DB] sorting matrix

2003-01-13 Thread xxx xxxx
Hy,
I have a matrix with strings ex. 4 cols and many rows
how could I sort the matrix after the 2nd field with maintaining the indexes order

Like in a table

name surname age address..
i have many records and i'd like to print the records in age order ascendent or after 
the surname order...

it's not a result from a query..just a simple matrix with strings and numbers...
i've tried "asort" function like: asort($matrix[1],SORT_STRING) but it doesn't work...
thanks a lot...

PS :if there are "friends" from romania and know well programming in php please send 
me a reply in order to "combine our powers" or to make useful things or 
projectsi'm not a "newbie"  and i don't want to colaborate with "newbies"...thanks
