Some PHP help, por favor?

[Injury]

Wrote some code to help me display some image galleries on my site... but I want them to display in alpahbetical order... so that I don't have rename files and the "img_32452435" will sort them.

They currently display in REVERSE order. How can change this?

Also... I'm new to coding from scratch. Any tips or suggestions for the code would rock. 🙂

I don't know any PHP, so while one could reasonably expect the language to have a reverse sorting function (google seems to suggest arsort instead of asort), try changing this:

for($t = 0; $t < $numberOfFiles; $t++)

to this

for($t = $numberOfFiles - 1; $t >= 0 ; $t--)

No dice 🙁

Still sorts in reverse alpha

any combo of the code you gave and the asort/arsort doesn't change anything.

Thanks, though. 🙂

Assuming readdir scans the files alphabetically, try taking the asort call out and see how it sorts. If that doesn't work, try calling asort twice

asort sorts the values of an array, you're using the file names as the key, try ksort instead of asort to sort on the key instead of the value.

That worked!

Thanks bunches for the help guys.

My next project to help me learn php: A ransom note generator! 😉 hahaha.
