I couldn't understand the BK> explanations i found (and so declared myself as newbie :) It's probably a lot easier to sort the data at the SQL level rather than messing around with your array. For example: $result = mysql_query( "SELECT id, name, surname, address FROM addresses ORDER BY name DESC"); Will list by name alphabetically (A-Z), change to "ASC" for Z-A). You can also order by two fields at once: $result = mysql_query( "SELECT id, name, surname, address FROM addresses ORDER BY name DESC, surname DESC"); Or some selective sorting: $result = mysql_query( "SELECT id, name, surname, address FROM addresses WHERE name LIKE 'a%' ORDER BY name DESC"); Will list all names starting with the letter A, in alphabetical order. -- Best regards, Richard mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
