Hi all,
some code I've written
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=24466.msg114097#msg114097 refuses
to be sorted:
here you see the list it produces:
http://cpcomp.mybesthost.com/boom.phpI want to sort that list alphabetically by genus (first column) and then by species (second column).
I've tried variations on multi_sort(), asort() and proper sort functions, but the problem seems to be that I can't find
how to sort by index.
My multi-dim array is declared like this:
$sorted = array(array(array(),array(),array()));
and filled-in like this:
foreach($rowset as $key => $row){
$genus = $row['user1'];
$species = $row['user2'];
$title = $row['title'];
$pict_id = $row['pid'];
$owner = $row['owner_name'];
$temp = count($sorted[$genus][$species]);
$sorted[$genus][$species][$temp][0] =$title;
$sorted[$genus][$species][$temp][1] =$pict_id;
$sorted[$genus][$species][$temp][2] =$owner;
}
which results in this kind of array:
array(20) { ["Cymbidium"]=> array(2) { ["goeringii"]=> array(4) { [0]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(19) "Cymbidium goeringii"
[1]=> string(2) "79"
[2]=> string(14) "KyushuCalanthe"
}

}

}
[3]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(14) "Calanthe rosea"

}
["reflexa"]=> array(1) { [0]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(16) "Calanthe reflexa"
[1]=> string(2) "70"
[2]=> string(14) "KyushuCalanthe"
}
}
}
...etc.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
