[RESOLVED] usort help

[snapbackz]

I am trying to sort an array based on another array. I think what I'm looking for is the usort() function but I have no idea what to write for the function. Would someone be so kind as to point me in the right direction?

Here is the array

$test['AAAAA'] = array ( 'img' => 'imgA.gif' );
$test['BBBBB'] = array ( 'img' => 'imgB.gif' );
$test['CCCCC'] = array ( 'img' => 'imgC.gif' );

I would like to sort that array but using the following array's order:

$sorter = array('CCCCC', 'AAAAA', 'BBBBB');

Is that possible even?

I think that you do not even need usort(). All you need to do is iterate over the values of $sorter, then assign the corresponding values of the array to be sorted to a temporary array. When the loop is done, assign the temporary array to the array to be sorted:

$result = array();
foreach ($sorter as $key) {
	$result[$key] = $test[$key];
}
$test = $result;

Laserlight to the rescue 🙂 Thank you! I tend to over complicate things. =P
