PHP - Little Help Sorting Table

Part of my code:

Code: [Select]
<?php

$arr = array ("Christina", "Daniel", "Andreea);
reset($arr);

foreach ($arr as $username) {

//more code here ...

foreach ($stats as $result) 
{
echo $username."'s points - ".$result."<br />";
}

}

?>

And gives this:
Code: [Select]
Christina's points - 14
Daniel's points - 45
Andreea's points 23

My question is: can you sort the the $result so it will show

Code: [Select]
Daniel's points - 45
Andreea's points 23
Christina's points - 14

Thank you

i need to sort my database results by the day they were added to the database. There is a column with the timestamp of when they were inserted but how do i group them by the day they were inserted so i can display them as such:

Mon 14th: 5 records
Tues 15th: 11 records

etc.

Just a further question from a earlier post that was complete if i do a search and i want to order them from a drop box the if statement would it just look like
Quote

"select * from Table order by '".$_POST['order']."'"

Or would this not work ?


Thanx

Hello.  I have a multi dimensional array that needs to be sorted. Array  top25 [index][product id][number_of_purchases].  The index will contain a unique number for each product id. First product will be 1, second product will be 2, etc.  The product id will be a id number like 34324ac9a89.  The number of purchases will be how many times the item has been purchased. 

- End result:  I want to print the 25 most purchased products in this format.

product id - number of purchases

a39acz   -  503
a8cz9c   - 480
zc8ac   -  392


How do I do this?  Thanks

I have a situation where I need to sort files on a screen based on the date that is embedded into the file name.  The problem is that I am sorting based off the file name, and when I get my output the LEGACY file always comes out on top of the sort because it starts with a 0 meanwhile the rest have dates appended the the filename so I don't have a problem sorting those.

Please help me if you can.

Hello everyone,

Could be possible someone help me on this code please?

I need to group and sort $search_query. They are the keywords extracted from $_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER] (referer in the query).

Thank you in advance.


Code: [Select]
$query = ("SELECT referer, browser_ip, date, customers_id, counter, browser_id, browser_language FROM visitors WHERE SUBSTRING(browser_language,1,1) != '[' ORDER by date DESC");
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

$referer = $row[0];
IF($referer)
{
    PREG_MATCH("/[\&\?]q=([^&]*)/", $referer, $matches);
        $search_query = RAWURLDECODE($matches[1]);
        $search_query = STR_REPLACE("+", " ", $search_query);
}

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.

Greetings!

I would like to ask for you help sorting a couple of lists that are autogenerated with php.
The page reads a content of a folder and makes a menu from the names. The folder names a a, b, c, d... etc.

The other part reads the content of the selected folder and displays the files.

My problem is, that on windows, using xampp, the both the folders and files appear in alphabetic order (what I want), but on the linux server they get completely messed up.
Instead of a, b, its o, a, d, etc.
I tried using the sort() function but there is no array to sort...

Thank you for any suggestions and help!

How do I sort this array so it is ordered alphabetically by the names so the result will be...

Code: [Select]

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>';
}

I am looking for information on how to accomplish this:

I want to order an array based on a variable. I have an array that is set like this array(1,2,3,4,5,6).
I want to order this array base on a variable that will be in the array.
So say my variable $x = 3, I want to order the array starting with the number right after the $x. So the array would look like this now array(4,5,6,1,2,3). Is this even possible?
Another example if $x = 6, The array would be array(1,2,3,4,5,6). So basically order the array so that the set variable (in this case $x) will be at the end and the rest will run in order.

First of all I am very new to php. I have coded in asp for years but have made the switch so I kinda know what I want to do but I am unsure on how to achieve it.

I am trying to populate this from a database list the results come ordered like this
Code: [Select]
1.0
2.0
3.0
3.1
3.2
3.3
3.4
3.4-1
3.4-2
3.4-3
3.4-4
4.0
4.1
4.2
4.3
4.4
4.5
4.6
5.0
6.0
where the "." show the 1st childs and the "-" show the 2nd child

I tried to do this by splting each line and determining if it is a zero or not if it was a zero i put that paticular one into an array to be used in the sub menu however this did not work out. Any ideas?

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:

"</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";
