Array Sort


I've got an array with the following structure:

$process[0] => array("recordID" => 1, "name" => "matt");
$process[1] => array("recordID" => 2, "name" => "john");
etc

I need the process array sorting by record ID...... I've tried doing

asort($process)

but that doesnt work - I dont know how to access the elements inside the array to sort by..... any ideas?

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 .

Multidim Array Sort
I am wondering if someone can point me to the needed sort function. There are so many of
them that I simply got lost by reading their descriptions. I try to explain what I need.

I have a multidimensional array and I have a function that outputs it as a table.

$arr[0] contains an array that contains usernames
$arr[1] contains an array that contains real names
$arr[2] contains an array that contains e-mails
etc...
$arr[last] contains integers for users "levels"

My function outputs users with their datas in the columns. Each column means one user.

Now I want to sort this whole array by levels. So, all other data should be sorted
according to the pattern in levels row.

How is this thing done?

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

I cannot just sort the data in the SQL query as I have to sort a column containing data in the format of "Firstname1 Lastname1 and Firstname2 Lastname2" and the sorting for that column has to be sorted by Lastname1 ASC. I figure this is somehow done using a sort array command but I am very lost on how to do achieve this sorting.
