Are there any libraries that do this for PHP already where I can look?
PHP does support sorting by locale since PHP 4.4 and 5, see php.net/sort SORT_LOCALE_STRING
Indeed, PHP supports locale aware sorting. Unfortunately all is only nice in PHP 6 (see http://www.php.net/i18n_loc_set_default for a nice example). The question is if sort() supports utf8 sorting by the surrent system locale properly (it sorts by ASCII code by default). I did not try this before. Gabor
