    // What makes it krsort:
    keys.reverse();    
    
    // Rebuild array with sorted keynames
    for (i = 0; i < key_num; i++) {
        key = keys[i];
        tmp_arr[key] = values[key]; 
    } 
    
    // Overwrite the original array, don't return it, to be complient with the php manual
    array = tmp_arr;

Coming Project features

Project features that we are currently working on:

• Site. A place for php.js of it's own. You can track our lame attempts at phpjs.org. If there are any CakePHP developers out there who would like to help out, please contact me.
• Compile. Compile your own php.js version, with only the functions you need. Should generate a hash with which you can retrieve latest versions of your php.js combination.
• docBlock. Move to docBlock comments for improved compatibility with IDEs.
• Done - Testsuite. A better test-suite that can be ran locally so developers can easily test before commiting. Also the testing itself should be more thorough.
• Done - Versioning. Individual functions are versioned, but the entire library should be versioned as well.
