I managed to make a function which seems to work.
But basically you're saying that even if the following code seems to
work in my browser, I shouldn't rely on it to work?
function sortProperties(obj){
var arr=[],newO={};
for (prop in obj){
arr.push(prop);
}
arr=arr.sort();
arr.forEach(function(prop){
newO[prop]=obj[prop];
});
return newO;
}
You can't rely on for..in, as the specification clearly states "The
mechanics and order of enumerating the properties (step 6.a in the first
algorithm, step 7.a in the second) is not specified.".
