reset
A cleaner (I think) way to sort a list of files into reversed order based on their modification date.
<?php
$path = $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]."/files/";
$dh = @opendir($path);
while (false !== ($file=readdir($dh)))
{
if (substr($file,0,1)!=".")
$files[]=array(filemtime($path.$file),$file); #2-D array
}
closedir($dh);
if ($files)
{
rsort($files); #sorts by filemtime
#done! Show the files sorted by modification date
foreach ($files as $file)
echo "$file[0] $file[1]<br>\n"; #file[0]=Unix timestamp; file[1]=filename
}
?>
rsort
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
rsort — Ordena un array en orden inverso
Descripción
bool rsort
( array
&$array
[, int $sort_flags = SORT_REGULAR
] )Esta función ordena un array en orden inverso (mayor a menor).
Parámetros
-
array -
El array de entrada.
-
sort_flags -
Quizá se necesita cambiar el comportamiento de ordenado usando el parámetro opcional
sort_flags, para más información ver sort().
Valores devueltos
Devuelve TRUE en caso de éxito o FALSE en caso de error.
Ejemplos
Ejemplo #1 Ejemplo de rsort()
<?php
$fruits = array("limón", "naranja", "plátano", "manzana");
rsort($fruits);
foreach ($fruits as $key => $val) {
echo "$key = $val\n";
}
?>
El resultado del ejemplo sería:
0 = plátano 1 = naranja 2 = manzana 3 = limón
Las frutas han sido ordenadas alfábeticamente pero en orden inverso.
Notas
Nota: Esta función asigna nuevas clave a los elemenos del
array. Eliminará cualquier clave existenteque haya sido asignada, en lugar de reordenar las claves.

I needed a function that would sort a list of files into reversed order based on their modification date.
Here's what I came up with:
function display_content($dir,$ext){
$f = array();
if (is_dir($dir)) {
if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {
while (($folder = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
if (preg_match("/\s*$ext$/", $folder)) {
$fullpath = "$dir/$folder";
$mtime = filemtime ($fullpath);
$ff = array($mtime => $fullpath);
$f = array_merge($f, $ff);
}
}
rsort($f, SORT_NUMERIC);
while (list($key, $val) = each($f)) {
$fcontents = file($val, "r");
while (list($key, $val) = each($fcontents))
echo "$val\n";
}
}
}
closedir($dh);
}
Call it like so:
display_content("folder","extension");

Like sort(), rsort() assigns new keys for the elements in array. It will remove any existing keys you may have assigned, rather than just reordering the keys. This means that it will destroy associative keys.
$animals = array("dog"=>"large", "cat"=>"medium", "mouse"=>"small");
print_r($animals);
//Array ( [dog] => large [cat] => medium [mouse] => small )
rsort($animals);
print_r($animals);
//Array ( [0] => small [1] => medium [2] => large )
Use KSORT() or KRSORT() to preserve associative keys.

Apparently rsort does not put arrays with one value back to zero. If you have an array like: $tmp = array(9 => 'asdf') and then rsort it, $tmp[0] is empty and $tmp[9] stays as is.

I thought rsort was working successfully or on a multi-dimensional array of strings that had first been sorted with usort(). But, I noticed today that the array was only partially in descending order. I tried array_reverse on it and that seems to have solved things.
