Comment (by tar.gz):

 As I said, my knowledge of the php syntax is rudimentary, so I'm not
 entirely sure what the line of code above is doing.

 If I integrate it into the function, it fixes the situation where 'order'
 would be any value different from 'asc' or 'desc', *but* it spits out the
 results in ASC order, while it would be more logical to keep it as the
 default (DESC).

 What about the following rule:

 {{{
 if ( 'ASC' != strtoupper( $order ) ) {
                   $order = 'DESC';
         }
 }}}

 This will accept ASC (case insensitive), and anything else simply returns
 DESC.
