Hi Tim,
array_multisort() should do the trick. See the manual
(http://php.net/array_multisort) for some examples ("Example 256.
Sorting database results") much like what you're describing.
Essentially, you'll have to loop through the array to create another
array something like:
$sortDistance['SCID1']=>20
$sortDistance['SCID2']=>10
and then call:
array_multisort($franchises, $sortDistance);

Hi All,
I have a multi-dimensional array such as:
$franchises['SCID1'] = SCNYC
$franchises['SCID1']['BusinessName'] = SuperCoups of NY City
$franchises['SCID1']['DistanceFromCustomer'] = 20
$franchises['SCID2'] = SCBUFF
$franchises['SCID2']['BusinessName'] = SuperCoups of Buffalo
$franchises['SCID2']['DistanceFromCustomer'] = 10
How can I sort this array so the businesses are sorted by the
DistanceFromCustomer key?
Thanks for the help in advance,
Tim
