yes. look into the selStart and selEnd properties.

need more information on this one. what are you trying to do? in
general, you do not need to sort prop lists, that the point of being
able to refer to the values by properties. but maybe you have a
compelling reason. i just don't know what it is.

this is hard without seeing the lists. i don't know why each name is
repeated twice. you have to be able to link the scores to the names,
but once you do, you can build one property list where the team name is
the prop and the score is the value.
