multisort on 2 fields

[KryptoS]

Hello,

I found a solution for this, but lost it and don't know how I did it. So maybe someone could help me..

array[0]['company'] = 'Company 1';
array[0]['name'] = 'Name 1';
array[1]['company'] = 'Company 1';
array[1]['name'] = 'Name 2';

that's how my array looks like. Now I want to sort it first on the key 'company' and in this sort on the key 'name'.

thank you.

Hi

Like this ?

[url=http://php.net/usort/]usort[/url]($array,'hmm');

function hmm($a,$b)
{
  if ($a['company']!=$b['company']) return $a['company']>$b['company']?-1:1;
  else return $a['name']>$b['name']?-1:1;
}

Sorry, I just found the solution. (why do we always find the solution after posting?)

foreach($array as $key=>$var) {
$company[$key]= $var['company'];
$name[$key] = $var[name];
}
array_multisort($company,SORT_ASC,$name,SORT_ASC,$array);

Must be kind of Murphy's Law...
