Sort treats the array as though it doesnt have keys. The keys and
values are mixed together and will become one giant array of =P

if you want to sort the keys alphabetically you should use ksort()
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.ksort.php

and if you would like to make your own sort algorthm you can use
usort()
