This basically sorts an associative array... somethin' like that.



$people = new Array();



$people[0]['id'] = 1;

$people[0]['name'] = "Dave";

$people[1]['id'] = 2;

$people[1]['name'] = "Alex";

$people[2]['id'] = 3;

$people[2]['name'] = "Chris";



function cmp($a, $b)

{

   return strcmp($a['name'], $b['name']);

}

usort($people, "cmp");
