It's worth noting that ksort is also handy if you want to be able to do manipulations on an numerically-keyed array which may not have been initialized in numerical order:
$a[2]=7;
$a[0]=1;
$a[1]=6;
foreach($a as $b) {
echo "$b ";
}
$a = ksort($a);
foreach($a as $b) {
echo "$b ";
}
ksort
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
ksort — Sortiert ein Array nach Schlüsseln
Beschreibung
bool ksort
( array
&$array
[, int $sort_flags = SORT_REGULAR
] )Sortiert ein Array nach Schlüsseln, wobei die Zuordnungen zwischen Schlüssel und Wert erhalten bleiben. Dies ist hauptsächlich bei assoziativen Arrays hilfreich.
Parameter-Liste
-
array -
Das Eingabe-Array.
-
sort_flags -
Sie können das Verhalten der Sortierung mittels dem optionalen Parameter
sort_flagsbeeinflussen, für Details siehe sort().
Rückgabewerte
Gibt bei Erfolg TRUE zurück. Im Fehlerfall wird FALSE zurückgegeben.
Beispiele
Beispiel #1 ksort()-Beispiel
<?php
$fruits = array("d" => "Zitrone", "a" => "Orange", "b" => "Banane", "c" => "Apfel");
ksort($fruits);
foreach ($fruits as $key => $val) {
echo "$key = $val\n";
}
?>
Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende Ausgabe:
a = Orange b = Banane c = Apfel d = Zitrone

Why not just use built-in PHP functions? You can do an in-place natural sort by keys with:
uksort($array, 'strnatcasecmp');

Just to complete the comments made by ssb45.
If the supplied array is an empty array, the value returned is NOT an array.
All that is required is to pre-initialize the result.
function natksort(&$aToBeSorted)
{
$aResult = array();
$aKeys = array_keys($aToBeSorted);
natcasesort($aKeys);
foreach ($aKeys as $sKey)
{
$aResult[$sKey] = $aToBeSorted[$sKey];
}
$aToBeSorted = $aResult;
return True;
}

The function that justin at booleangate dot org provides works well, but be aware that it is not a drop-in replacement for ksort as is. While ksort sorts the array by reference and returns a status boolean, natksort returns the sorted array, leaving the original untouched. Thus, you must use this syntax:
$array = natksort($array);
If you want to use the more natural syntax:
$status = natksort($array);
Then use this modified version:
function natksort(&$array) {
$keys = array_keys($array);
natcasesort($keys);
foreach ($keys as $k) {
$new_array[$k] = $array[$k];
}
$array = $new_array;
return true;
}

Here's a handy function for natural order sorting on keys.
function natksort($array) {
// Like ksort but uses natural sort instead
$keys = array_keys($array);
natsort($keys);
foreach ($keys as $k)
$new_array[$k] = $array[$k];
return $new_array;
}

I believe documentation should mention which of array-functions do reset the internal pointer; this one does so ...

A list of directories can be listed sorted by date (newer first) with this script. This is usefull if the directories contain (for example) pictures and you want the newer to appear first.
$maindir = "." ;
$mydir = opendir($maindir) ;
// SORT
$directorios = array();
while (false !== ($fn = readdir($mydir)))
{
if (is_dir($fn) && $fn != "." && $fn != "..")
{
$directory = getcwd()."/$fn";
$key = date("Y\-m\-d\-His ", filectime($directory));
$directorios[$key] = $directory;
}
}
ksort($directorios);
$cronosdir = array();
$cronosdir = array_reverse($directorios);
while (list($key, $directory) = each($cronosdir)) {
echo "$key = $directory<bR>";
}

here 2 functions to ksort/uksort an array and all its member arrays
function tksort(&$array)
{
ksort($array);
foreach(array_keys($array) as $k)
{
if(gettype($array[$k])=="array")
{
tksort($array[$k]);
}
}
}
function utksort(&$array, $function)
{
uksort($array, $function);
foreach(array_keys($array) as $k)
{
if(gettype($array[$k])=="array")
{
utksort($array[$k], $function);
}
}
}

A real quick way to do a case-insensitive sort of an array keyed by strings:
uksort($myArray, "strnatcasecmp");

ksort on an array with negative integers as keys yields some odd results. Not sure if this is a bad idea (negative key values) or what.
