Create Up/Down Triangle for Sorting?

@TechnoBear

Except that you introduced that factor in post #15, when you explained your full requirements, and stated In view of that comment, John and others attempted to help you find a suitable solution. That you subsequently changed your requirements and were able to figure out your own solution is great, but it doesn’t devalue the effort that other members have put in to assisting you.

Your thread has not been hi-jacked. You have found the answer to your initial question and, as sometimes happens, the thread has diversified into other areas relevant to the discussion as a whole.

Sometimes it makes sense to drop things and start a new conversation…

I appreciate John going out of his way to create a script from scratch to try and help.

Thanks!

But when John is asking for others to point out why his script isn’t working, and then Francky comes in with his 109 lines of testing of John’s script, it is a bit much!! <snip />

And if you really want to see hijacking, go check out this thread… Returning an Array from a Function

Tangents are fine as long as they are from the Original Poster, or they relate to the Original Post.

In my opinion, it is NOT okay for someone to come in and ask for help on their code when it isn’t their thread. Likewise, it isn’t okay to start their own debate when it doesn’t pertain to the OP.

Please tell me how any of Hall Of Famer’s rant below relates to my other thread…

@Hall_of_Famer

using PHP native arrays can promote bad programming habits of building multi-dimensional associative arrays that really should’ve been presented as object composition. One example I’ve identified is from the book ‘Zend Framework 2.0 by Example’,

That has absolutely nothing to do with what I was originally asking help with!!

Whatever…
