Not a maps question.
Your searchLocationsNear() function doesn't attempt to read the sort
value from the HTML form at all.
You need to read the value from an HTML element in a similar way as
you read the radius variable.
And then substitute it in the URL string where you have &sort=name
hardcoded.

Have you looked at the javascript errors on that page? You'll want to
load dragzoom.js AFTER the maps API
