    If I have an array of filenames, is there a way I can reorder it so it is alphabetic from a-z?

    Thanks

    The book, Using Arrays in PHP says to generate an alphabetcal sort do this::

    $products = array( 'Tires', 'Oil', 'Spark Plugs' );
sort($products);

    So just a simple inbuild sort() function will do it?!?! Wow thats so simple. :D

    Will research into that function in the manual as I hadnt heard of it before.
