What version of PHP are you using? And what exactly is the code that you're
using?

filemtime() returns a _unix timestamp_ and will asort() as is.

Ahh, you're right! I had a rogue:

$date = date("m-d-Y", filemtime($fn));

in there. :) Thought I got rid of all of those in testing... my
organization has a standard date format and it must be dashes instead of
slashes, and of course it has to be month, day, year!
