Sort A Mysql Result According To A Php Array
Hi everybody !
I have a question for the gurus ;+)
I have to arrays :
PHP Code:
$id = array(45,9,21);
$pos = array(3,1,2);
I select in my mysql table using the ids :
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE id IN(".implode("",$id).")";
and I now want to sort the result according to the $pos array.
Is there a way to do this directly in mysql ?
If not, what would be the smartest way to do it in PHP ?
Because I would prefer NOT to do the following :
PHP Code:
while ($t = mysql_fetch_array($ret)) {
    $a_field1[] = $t["field1"];
    $a_field2[] = $t["field2"];
    $a_field3[] = $t["field3"];
    $a_field4[] = $t["field4"];
...
}
array_multisort($pos,$a_field1,$a_field2,$a_field3,$a_field4)
I fear it could be a very time consuming process when there is a lot of results and a lot of fields. But may be the no other solution...
Thanks

MySQL Result To Real Array In Function
I'd like to create a function which input is the result of a mySQL query. The output should be exactly the same, only not a mySQL result array, but a 'real' array. So it should also get the fieldnames returned by mySQL and use those as keys. I can't get things to work properly: it should return a multidimensional array, like $result_array[1] = array( [field1] => field1 value, [field2] => field2 value, etc. ) somehow my result is (with code below) $result_array[1] = array( [0] => field1 value, [field1] => field1 value, [1] => field2 value, [field2] => field2 value, etc. ) +++++ code ++++++ $get_res= mysql_query(QUERY); if( $res = mysql_fetch_array( $get_res ) ) { do{ $result[] = $res; }while( $res = mysql_fetch_array( $get_res ) ); }; foreach( $result as $key => $value ){ print_r($value); };

Can I Put A Mysql Query Result Directly Into A Multidimensional Array?
I have two joined tables: Departments - which contains the department description and a key Positions - which contains position data What I'm attempting to achieve is to display the department title in one table cell and then list all the positions associated with that department in the cell under neither the title. I need to generate a table two column table with as many rows as required, depending on the number of departments, which is dynamic. Do this I'm trying to turn the result of my SQL query into multidimensional array e.g. dept = VioP positions = "designer", "engineer" etc, which I can do then use to generate the table.

Sorting Sql Results In An Array Using Things Outside The Array To Sort Them?
I'm using PHP to connect to a database full of place names, and their associated post codes, latitude and longitude on the earth. A user types his or her post code into a form, plus a distance (in miles), and the script looks for other area codes (first half of the post code) within that distance. I can do that fine, but the results are ordered alphabetically by postcode, and I want to order it by the distance. Problem here, is that the distance isn't part of the array taken from the database, it takes the latitude and longitude of the area it's on in the while loop, and calculates the distance between the user's post code and that one, but it's not part of the array, so I can't sort the array using it. How can I sort it? Can I add the calculated distances to the array, and sort it using sort()? If yes, how do I add them to the array? Here's the page, just to explain better what the script does: http://navimaker.org/ed/owain/results.php?postcode=gl15&distance=34 Mess around with the postcode and distance vars. I'd put the source on here too but I'm doing all this over SSH and can't copy & paste very easily .

Sort Array By String Length

Each word gets hashed to an integer value, and it's useful for me to have the values in the array ordered by their string length (in ascending order) to do this. After a gander through the array functions in the PHP manual the closest match I see to this is uasort(array,function cmp_function) Would this be the right function to use? And if it is, any idea what the function would look like to get them in ascending order of length...
