Question

How can I flip the order of text

$string = 'last row
something inbetween
first row';

Result should be:

first row
something inbetween
last row

Note this is no A-Z ordering, just flipping it.

Is it possible? A solution in PHP, javascript or jquery would be welcome

Answer 1

You can split the string and reverse the array:

$array = explode("\n", $string);
$array = array_reverse($array);
$string = implode("\n", $array);

Edit: no one wrote an javascript solution (same logic as php script):

var string = string.split("\n").reverse().join("\n");
