you should expect array(
'Personal Email' => 75,
'USPS mail' => 40,
'Personal Phone' => 31,
'Web site' => 31,
'Text Message' => 31
)
logically, the items are your key but not the count of votes
That's the ticket. The solution is pretty simple now that we
understand the nature of the problem. :-)

Andrew:
Half the solution is understanding the problem.
However, the above solution only solves half the problem.
Maybe I'm confused... but can't the following be used?
<?php
array_multisort( $votes, SORT_DESC, $items, SORT_DESC );
$final = array_combine( $items, $votes );
print_r( $final );
?>
Cheers,
Rob.
Rob:
You're never confused because you are always right.
Congrats, you were the first to solve this problem this simply.
To tell the truth, I didn't fully understand how array_multisort()
worked until I reviewed your solution. I thought array_multisort()
was to sort multi-dimensional arrays and simply overlooked the
description that it could also sort several arrays at once. Duh --
sometimes my reading/comprehension skills suck.
Many thanks for your time.
Cheers,
tedd
