Problem...

[LiamProductions]

Hey.

 

I can't find the problem on this:

 

<?php

$fruits = array ('red'             =>  'apple',
                          'orange'      =>   'orange',
		  'yellow'       =>   'banana');
		  
foreach ($fruits as $fruit_key => $fruit_value)    {

              echo sorta($fruit_key.' - '.$fruit_value. '<br />'));
      
      }
      
?>	      

 

 

but it is giving me a error.

A few suggestions.

 

If you want people to read your threads, provide a more descriptive title than 'problem'.

 

If you 'it is giving me a error', tell us exactly what it is and where it occurs.

 

And, of course, you've already checked the manual. Right?

[LiamProductions]

Oh ok...

 

And heres the error message:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FOREACH in /home/liam/public_html/phpvideotutorial.php on line 7

[AndyB]

echo sorta($fruit_key.' - '.$fruit_value. '<br />'));

 

too many ) there, perhaps?

I took away 1 ) and i got this:

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: sorta() in /home/liam/public_html/phpvideotutorial.php on line 9

[AndyB]

OK. The error message is pretty explicit. The function named sorta() is not defined.  Unless you defined it yourself elsewhere in some code, you can only use functions that are supported by your installed version of php.

 

As always, the manual is very useful - http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.sort.php

in PHP.net Manual... sorta is suppose to sort the arrays alphebetically

[per1os]

I think your mistaken.

 

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.sort.php

 

asort is for sorting but mainting index association.

 

Sort automaticalyl goes by the natrual sort meaning it will sort numbers before letters etc. sorta is not a function.
