Jon,

Can you use a column decorator to do your other logic?  That may solve
your issue.

Subject: [displaytag-user] Sorting Issues

I have a strange sorting issue that i was wondering if anyone has an
idea what would case the problem.

I have the following code for one of my columns

<display:column title="Description" headerClass="Table_Col_Header"
sortable="true" style="{text-align: left}"> <% String description =
(((com.mitel.me.model.Domain)
pageContext.getAttribute("tableId")).getDescription()); %>
<%=description%> </display:column>

I have omitted other code that does some calculations on the description
etc, since it doesn't seem to be what is causing me the problem (ie, due
to this other code that is required I can't simply use
property="description in the column tag)

If i have a list with the following descriptions aaaa bbbb CCCC dddd
eeee FFFF

and i sort, i get the following.
CCCC
FFFF
aaaa
bbbb
dddd
eeee

It seems to sort descriptions that start with a capital letter first and
then sort descriptions with lower case afterwards.  Does anyone have an
idea why this would be?  This isn't the case if i simply use
property="description", which I can't use since i need some extra logic
to change the description in the jsp.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Jon
