flags
The optional second parameter flags
may be used to modify the sorting behavior using these values:
Sorting type flags:
SORT_REGULAR - compare items normally;
the details are described in the comparison operators section
SORT_NUMERIC - compare items numerically
SORT_STRING - compare items as strings
SORT_LOCALE_STRING - compare items as
strings, based on the current locale. It uses the locale,
which can be changed using setlocale()
SORT_NATURAL - compare items as strings
using "natural ordering" like natsort()
SORT_FLAG_CASE - can be combined
(bitwise OR) with
SORT_STRING or
SORT_NATURAL to sort strings case-insensitively
Always returns true.

Example #1 krsort() example
<?php
$fruits = array("d"=>"lemon", "a"=>"orange", "b"=>"banana", "c"=>"apple");
krsort($fruits);
foreach ($fruits as $key => $val) {
echo "$key = $val\n";
}
?>
The above example will output:
d = lemon c = apple b = banana a = orange
