Description:
------------
I have found a bug on page function.uksort.html
[chm date: 2006-02-09]...


Example 298. uksort() example is wrong the docs state that "The comparison function must return an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the first argument is considered to be respectively less than, equal to, or greater than the second"

in the example the "return ($a > $b) ? -1 : 1;" line is wrong as if $a > $b then the statement should be

"return ($a > $b) ? 1 : -1;"

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

Actually, the example was correct, because the output shows the values in descending order. Now, the output is incorrect and should be in ascending order:

3: three
4: four
10: ten
20: twenty

Thanks for spotting this. So the example was correct and this bug is bogus. However I changed the example to something different than emulation of krsort().
