thanks, let's just say , for arguments sake, that I need to define an array with these elements: user_email, user_name, hours_worked_per_week, total_earned How do I define that array, and then how do I sort if ascending alpha on user_email? ... how the info gets into the array and what happens to it afterwards, let's leave to the side for the moment.

Someone is just inputting it on screen

Its not from a database.

I have an array I want to define in Php and then sort it. I am pretty new to Php and don't know the syntax or what funcs to use. Here's the array I want: user_email, user_name, hours_worked_per_week, total_earned There will be about 120 users, and I want to sort them ascending alphabetically on user_email

I am running three scheduled tasks on my website. I am only allowed three per day by my host. I want to add another one. Can I simply call another php program from within a php program which is currently running ?

I am new to php and starting to write my first programs. I have a laptop (my local pc) and I am wondering if there is some kind of php-interpreter available so I can test them out on my local machine without having to upload them to my website? Is there anyway I can avoid having to install a web-sever on my machine? Is there an all-in-one php interpreter? (someone suggested something called Xampp, - is this the best?) thanks,,

thanks, thats helpful. My website has an event on the 3rd Thursday of every month. So I want to code something that runs once a day and updates the website. I think my logic could go something like this:

What is the easiest way of finding out in php what date a certain day falls on? ie: I want to know what date is the 3rd Thursday of every month. for example, this month would be " The third Thursday of this month falls on : 18th November " Whats the best way of doing that in php? Thanks,,
