TalkPHP - View Single Post - How to sort a multi-array

I believe asort is what your looking for.

PHP Code:


			
$array = array('1' => array('52' => 'Milk Choclate',
                            '221' => 'Vanilla Bean',
                            '212' => 'Banana Cream',
                            '80' => 'Choclate Peanut Butter'));

asort($array['1']);
echo print_r($array);

I am not to sure if this is exactly what you are looking for. If you could provide a more accurate example as if I were to build a recursive function for this (multi-dim array);

It would need to start at the deepest array and work back to the beginning (what string value does an array have?) if you see what I mean.
