Comment #12 on issue 459 by erik.corry: localeCompare implementation differs from other browsers http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=459
I'm not sure what a better API would be. It's already possible to provide your own comparison function to the sort routines, which can be adjusted to the data your users want sorted. Since some countries (eg Germany) have more than one way to sort (eg. phone book order vs. dictionary order) I don't think this is the sort of place where a standards committee can profitably venture. Regardless of our opinions around locale (I have lived in 3 countries and always found any use of locale to be worse than useless) we should aim to be compatible with Safari unless there is a really good reason not to be. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
