OK, I already got this question in stackoverflow but sadly it's in javascript - Javascript - sort array based on another array
and I want it in PHP
$data = array(
"item1"=>"1",
"item2"=>"3",
"item3"=>"5",
"item4"=>"2",
"item5"=>"4"
);
to match the arrangement of this array:
sortingArr = array("5","4","3","2","1");
and the output I'm looking for:
$data = array(
"item3"=>"5",
"item5"=>"4",
"item2"=>"3",
"item4"=>"2",
"item1"=>"1"
);
Any idea how this can be done? Thanks.
Pretty simple ?
$data = array(
"item1"=>"1",
"item2"=>"3",
"item3"=>"5",
"item4"=>"2",
"item5"=>"4"
);
$sortingArr = array("5","4","3","2","1");
$result = array(); // result array
foreach($sortingArr as $val){ // loop
$result[array_search($val, $data)] = $val; // adding values
}
print_r($result); // print results
Output:
Array
(
[item3] => 5
[item5] => 4
[item2] => 3
[item4] => 2
[item1] => 1
)
