[Resolved] natcasesort help

[aaron_karp]

I'm doing a fairly basic sorting operation on an array, but the "sort down" part of it seems to be messing up the data. (If I sort "up" everything works and the rest of my code spits out a whole bunch of rows, but if I sort "down," no rows appear.)

Here's the essential part of my code. $data[$colname] is, of course, an array. Any thoughts?

if ($direction == "up") {
    @natcasesort($data[$colname]);
} else if ($direction == "down") {
    $data[$colname] = @array_reverse(@natcasesort($data[$colname]), true);
}

And if you're a pro and think my code looks fine... feel free to say so, and I'll know to look elsewhere in my program for the problem.

Thanks!

Figured it out - natcasesort doesn't return a value, it just sorts the array.

That's why my data was disappearing =)

Thanks to all those who looked.
