How about making a simple 1D array also with only filenamess, and then sort that and let the multiarray (2D) follow in the sorting at the same time;

That seems like overkill, and it seems like there should be some way to sort 2D arrays... but it is worth a shot. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Yeah, that's what I meant with Multiarray, instead of simple array, my own vocabulary I guess.... <hr /></blockquote>That was posted before your edit. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif <hr /></blockquote>Sometimes a new post can be the proper choice instead of an edit I guess...

Edit:especially in a fast post thread as this, I won't edit much more..

That seems like overkill, and it seems like there should be some way to support 2D arrays... but it is worth a shot. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif <hr /></blockquote>I agree, there must be an easy way, easy if one knows it... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Re: PHP Help Needed

Well.. that sorted them in a new order... not alphabetical though. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Maybe my selection sort is a bit off...

Looking at link now.

Re: PHP Help Needed

Strange indeed!

Edit: I can't really see any logic in the sorting http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: PHP Help Needed

Now look at it when it is using multisort... almost in order, but not quite. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Re: PHP Help Needed

I think this takes sleeping on.....

Re: PHP Help Needed

I fail to see a problem with this line:

array_multisort($fileArray, SORT_ASC, SORT_STRING);
