I've got an array $items which has about 200 entires. I want to print them out in random order, but as usual, I have a catch! I need to add a 'key' so that if need be, I can always return to the same 'random' order, like so: $items=predicatable_random($items, "qwerty"); so for each place that I need the items rearranged, I will replace qwerty with a different string, and get a different 'random' order. I haven't played around with it much as I stumbled into a brick wall fairly early and can't get much going. Any ideas? I tried to play with usort, uksort, ksort, and various combinations with shuffle. The 'randomization' can be based on qualities of each string, such as 'sort alphebetically by the 7th character', so I thought that I'd try that, but I got lost in explodes and such. Thanks all. I always look forward to my php lessons!
