Ordering array won't work?

[frizzle]

Hi there,

I want to scan a dir, put the *.gif into an array, and order that (
01.gif, 02.gif etc),
and put that array into a $_session-array. (Session & Headers are
initiated before this code)
I have the code below, everything works, except for the ordering.

Any clues ?

Thanks, Frizzle.

$dir = opendir("./img/");

while( $file = readdir($dir)){
if (preg_match("/\.gif$/", $file)) {

$filename = preg_replace( "/\.gif$/", '', $file );
$_SESSION['all_pics'][$filename] = "Foobar";

};
};

closedir( $dir );

asort( $_SESSION['all_pics'] );

Well, if the value of every array item is the same, offcourse there will be
no sorting done.
If you want to sort on key:
ksort($_SESSION['all_pics']);

Allthough I can't image why:
$_SESSION['all_pics'][] = $filename;
...
asort($_SESSION['all_pics']);
does not do...

All the values in your array are equal to "Foobar", and so asort doesn't need
to do anything to the array to sort it.

Look at all the various functions with "sort" in their name. You'll find the
one you want soon enough.
