Your database or your programming language should provide the sorting
mechanism, or you should implement sorting yourself (as a database engine
plug-in if it supports it, or in the programming language if it doesn't).
We already have solutions for C, PHP, and PostgreSQL, but all are
Linux-only, or possibly Cygwin (port of GNU tools to Windows).

As far as I can tell, you HTML doesn't have any notion of fields. If you 
mean the letters Peh, Gaf, Farsi Yeh, etc, they can be referenced in HTML 
pages as "&#x"+hexcode+";". Farsi Yeh becomes "ی", for example.
