Associative Array Sorting

[Anon]

Hello:

I have an associative array returned from the result of an SQL query. I use the data for two while loops with this array for displaying data.

My question is on the second while loop that I do. Is there any way to sort the associative array before I perform the loop?

I am trying to avoid doing another query on the database just to get the same result from the first query in a different sort order.

Thanks,
Troy

If I understand correctly what you are trying to do, I believe either asort() or arsort() is the function for which you are looking. These functions will sort an associative array while maintaining the indices.

Thanks Mike,

Looks like that is what I was looking for.
