array sort

[Vivid Lust]

Hi all,

 

How could i sort this array so that:

 

index   text            count

1    england          2

2      scotland          5

3      wales            1

 

becomes:

 

index   text            count

2        scotland          5

1      england          2

3        wales            1

 

Thanks all!!

try

<?php
$test = array(1 =>
		array('text' => 'england', 'count' => 2),
		array('text' => 'scotland', 'count' => 5),
		array('text' => 'wales', 'count' => 1)
);
echo '<pre>',print_r($test), '</pre><hr />';

function my_compare($a, $b){
if ($a['count'] == $b['count']) return 0;
return $a['count'] < $b['count'] ? 1 : -1;
}

uasort($test, 'my_compare');

echo '<pre>',print_r($test), '</pre><hr />';
?>

foreach ($array as $key => $row) {
    $count[$key]  = $row['count'];
}
array_multisort($count, SORT_DESC, $array);
