Thanks Olivier. There's a fix described above that hasn't been released yet. Please try my demo page in FF and let me know if you still see the bug:
http://74.205.76.81/sorttest/index4.php I only see it in IE, but I haven't tried YOUR demo yet, because I can't open a RAR file. Can you please provide a ZIP? These kinds of bugs are show-stoppers, so I'm holding my breath until the "officials" weigh in on this!
