Re: sorting arrays

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Right! That fixed it. I was doing it like this:

$nar = asort($nar);

which gave me a boolean result
When I should have done it like this:

asort($nar) ;
reset($nar);

I didn't understand the return of an asort was boolean and not the processed
array itself.


Thanks,

-Brian
