He was not making a joke, he was making a suggestion ...There is currently no way to sort the items retrieved in a listfiles context, but of course it *makes sense* for us to have a way to sort these items, just like it makes sense to be able to sort items in a search.Currently the only way to sort listfiles items is to write them to a temporary db, then search that db and sort the results by whichever field we choose. But that's a waste of resources when the same task *could be* performed without a search if listfiles offered optional sorting capabilities. ================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
