I can't get this sort - not sure if it's because i'm mixing up array/hash, or if i'm just mixed up period:
#filenames looks like this: category_Title Words_1
#SEARCH THROUGH THE CONTENT DIRECTORY AND FIND THE FILES THAT MATCH
chdir("$contentdir");#change to the content directory
my $stuff = ".";#make it $_
opendir THISDIR, "$stuff";#open the content directory
my @submenu = readdir THISDIR;#put the names of the files in an array
closedir THISDIR;
($sub1, $sub2, $sub3) = split (/\_/, $_,3);#split it on the underscore
+s
$sub3 = sort { $b <=> $a } $sub3;
doesn't work. i've also tried:
my @newarray = ($sub1,$sub2,$sub3);
@newarray = sort { $a->[2] cmp $b->[2] } @newarray;
and a million other wrong ways. please advise. thank you!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
