Change $query = "select * from $table";
to $query = "select * from $table order by Jobtitle";

Assuming (from your code) you want them alphabatized
by Jobtitle of course  =P

Subject: [PHP] Sort a an array?


I want to sort a result set from a mySQL query (see code below).
I can't figure out how to properly sort the $result in the while loop.

I just want to alphabatize the search result.

Any suggestions how to do this?

Thanks
