php multidim array key sort

• rabattski

  i have this multidimensional array. every entry has 4 keys and i want to sort the array on 2 keys. so it has to sort first on key 1 and when that's done i want to sort it on another key. so basically it's a sort within a sort. tried strcmp twice but obviously that doesn't take the previous sort in account and sorts it all over again. anyone got a clue?

  Maybe my brain is small, but can you give us an example?

  Can't you do something like this:

  // Sort the 'first level' array
  $array = sort($array);

  // Initiate the sorted array:
  $sortedarray = array();

  foreach($array as $key => $subarray) {
  $sortedarray[$key] = sort($subarray);
  }
