Sorting Mulidimensional Array By Value?	View Content

I have an array and when i do a print_r(), i get this:

Array ( => Array ( [path] => 1 [order] => 2 ) [1] => Array ( [path] => 2 [order] => 2 ) [2] => Array ( [path] => 3 [order] => 1 ) )

Hi - I'm modifying some PHP code that someone else wrote. Below is a snippet of code that basically takes mp3 files files within all the folders in a directory, and creates an RSS feed. In the resulting feed, the files are intermingled in date order.

Instead, I'd like them sorted by the directory that they are in. So, if there are files in these directories:

01-First
02-Second
03-Third

I'd like all the files in the "01-First" directory to come before the "02-Second" directory and so on. Within each directory the files can be sorted as they currently are. The name of the directory in the code is signified by $dir_name.

I tried sort() and array_multisort() but I couldn't get either of them to work the way I wanted. Any thoughts?

if ($url_params['mode'] == 'rss2') {

print getRSSHeader('UTF-8', $device, $vm_config, $vm_name, $web_master, $logo_image,$context);
 $mailboxes = array();
if ($dev_dir = @opendir($VMHome . $device)) { //might fail if mailbox has not received first message yet
while ($f = readdir($dev_dir)) {
 if (!eregi("tmp","$f") && !eregi("\.+","$f") && !eregi("Exclude-From-CD", "$f")) { //skip tmp directory and Exclude-From-CD Directories
 array_push($mailboxes,"$f"); #collect all existing mailboxes
 }
}
 array_multisort($mailboxes, SORT_DESC);
foreach ($mailboxes as $mailbox) {
$files=array();
$dir_name = $VMHome . $device . '/'. $mailbox .'/';
$dir = opendir($dir_name);
while ($f = readdir($dir)) {
if (eregi("\.txt",$f)){ #if filename matches .txt in the name
 array_push($files,"$f"); #push into $files array
}
}
foreach($files as $file){
 $props = getProperties($dir_name, $file);
 $uid = getMP3File($dir_name, $file, $props, $device, $mailbox, $vm_config, $vm_name,$context);
 print getRSSItem ($props, $uid, $dir_name, $device, '/' . $mailbox . '/', $context);
}
}
}
print '
</channel>
</rss>';
}

The following code works, but I need to take it a step further and I'm not sure how. What I'd like to do is sort the output so the highest point totals get printed first (along with the associated information). Can anyone help?

Here's the site:

http://www.beat-the-spread.net/seasontotals.php

Here's the code:
Code: [Select]
$i=1;
$w=1;
$result = mysql_query( "
SELECT team_name, owner
FROM teams" );
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
echo "<tr>\n",
"</td><td>",
$row['owner'],
"</td><td>",
$row['team_name'];

$result1 = mysql_query( "
SELECT bye, owner_pts
FROM schedule
WHERE team = $i");
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result1);

while ($row1 = mysql_fetch_array($result1))
{

$totalpts = $totalpts + $row1['owner_pts'];

if (empty($row1['bye']))
{
echo "</td><td>", $row1['owner_pts'], "</tr>\n";
}
else
{
echo "</td><td>","0","</tr>\n";
}

}

while ($num_rows<=16)
{
echo "</td><td>","","</tr>";
$num_rows++;
}

echo "</td><td>","$totalpts","</tr>";
$totalpts=0;
$w++;
$i++;
}

echo "</table>\n";

mysql_close($con);

Thanks!

Hello!

I have a 2D array that look as follows:

$test["name"][0] = "arnold";
$test["name"][1] = "nate";
$test["name"][2] = "steve";

$test["id"][0] = 2;
$test["id"][1] = 0;
$test["id"][2] = 1;

This means arnold has an ID of 2, nate has an ID of 0 and steve has an ID of 1.
Now I want to sort the array based on the ID value, so I want to achieve the following result:

$test["name"][0] = "nate";
$test["name"][1] = "steve";
$test["name"][2] = "arnold";

How would I achieve this? Help much appreciated.

Hi,

I have got some data out of my database, I would now like to sort all of this by putting the data into arrays, something looking like this:

branch - costs - profit

France - 406.85 - 1392.48

So each branch is one item in the array, but has the costs and profit with it too.

I would then like to sort those arrays by things like branch name, costs and profit.

Is this possible?

Hello. I am just trying to sort an array alphabetically. Here's the code I'm using:

function GetAssocCharities($registrationNo)
{
$db = ConnectionString::ConnectTo_www_ago_mo_gov_data();
$sqlstring = "SELECT * FROM charityPartners where RegistrationNo LIKE '$registrationNo' ORDER BY Name";

$results = @mysql_query($sqlstring);

$org = null;

while ($resultArray = mysql_fetch_array($results))
{

$temp = new Registrants($resultArray['ARegNoFormatted'], $resultArray);

$org[] = $temp;
}

return asort($org);

}

When I try to loop through the array using a foreach loop, I get an error that Invalid argument supplied for foreach().

Here's my foreach loop:

$lstCharities = OrgQueries::GetAssocCharities($registrant->RegNoFormatted);

foreach($lstCharities as $c)
{

//dom something here
}

I'm sure its something with not understanding list v array or something or that nature, but I'm not having much luck figuring it out with google.

Sorting Multidimensional Array

I want to create an array based on data in a multidimensional array. Take, for example:

$table[1] = array('husband' => array ('firstname'=> 'Albert',
'lastname' => 'Einstein',
'age' => 129),
'wife' => array ('firstname' => 'Mileva',
'lastname' => 'Einstein',
'age' => 128));

What would be the best approach, when you want to
create an array with only the last names or the ages? Are there some
things like wildcards in the PHP array universe to skip the first array level?

Any suggestion is very appreciated. I tried several strategies, but ended up creating the same mulitdimensional array as above.

I can't quite figure out how to sort this array the way I want. I have tried "array_multisort" but can only get one demension to sort.

Here is the array...

$catagory = array(
   array('Catagory 1', 8,
      array('Sub Catagory 1 Item 1', 8),
      array('Sub Catagory 1 Item 2', 9),
      array('Sub Catagory 1 Item 3', 7),
      array('Sub Catagory 1 Item 4', 6),

   array('Catagory 2', 10,
      array('Sub Catagory 2 Item 1', 6),
      array('Sub Catagory 2 Item 2', 5),
      array('Sub Catagory 2 Item 3', 9),
      array('Sub Catagory 2 Item 4', 10),
      ),
     );

I would like the top catagories sorted in desending order and all the subcatagories sorted in desending order. The result would sort like this...

Catagory 2 = 10
Sub Catagory 2 Item 4 = 10
Sub Catagory 2 Item 3 = 9
Sub Catagory 2 Item 1 = 6
Sub Catagory 2 Item 2 = 5
Catagory 1 = 8
Sub Catagory 1 Item 2 = 9
Sub Catagory 1 Item 1 = 8
Sub Catagory 1 Item 3 = 7
Sub Catagory 1 Item 4 = 6

How can I achieve this. Thanks for any help.
