Sorting string-array without case...

[jodleren]

Hi!

I user sort() but it gives me all uppercase items first.
Looking at http://ee.php.net/manual/en/function.sort.php I cannot find
what I need - tried natcasesort, but that was even more
interesting....

sort gives me (yes, I am aware of the spelling error)

Doc manager
Doc manger more
Tango
brugs

while natcasesort gives me

Doc manager
Tango
Doc manger more
brugs

and I want

brugs
Doc manager
Doc manger more
Tango

just as my alphabet is :-)
What should I user...

How about this (untested):

$arr = array('foo', 'bar', 'Baz');
usort($arr, create_function ('$v1,$v2', 'return strcasecmp($v1,
$v2);'));

Yep, that does it. Thanks

I implemented it as this, which makes it work as a normal sort.

function my_sort(&$arr)
{
usort($arr, create_function ('$v1,$v2', 'return
strcasecmp($v1, $v2);'));
}
