Faster, more effective function:
array_sort (array, ['asc'/'desc'])
Second parameter specifies whether to order ascending or descending. Default is ascending.
function array_sort($array, $type='asc'){
$result=array();
foreach($array as $var => $val){
$set=false;
foreach($result as $var2 => $val2){
if($set==false){
if($val>$val2 && $type=='desc' || $val<$val2 && $type=='asc'){
$temp=array();
foreach($result as $var3 => $val3){
if($var3==$var2) $set=true;
if($set){
$temp[$var3]=$val3;
unset($result[$var3]);
}
}
$result[$var]=$val;
foreach($temp as $var3 => $val3){
$result[$var3]=$val3;
}
}
}
}
if(!$set){
$result[$var]=$val;
}
}
return $result;
}
Works for ordering by integers or strings, no need to specify which.
Example:
$array=array('a' => 50, 'b' => 25, 'c' => 75);
print_r(array_sort($array));
Returns:
Array
(
[b] => 25
[a] => 50
[c] => 75
)
