[Javascript] object sort fails in IE

[Flavio Gomes]

Check your code:
 if ( a.labelString < b.labelString ) { result = 1; }
 if ( b.labelString > a.labelString ) { result = -1; }

Shouldn't it be:

 if ( a.labelString < b.labelString ) { result = 1; }
 if ( a.labelString > b.labelString ) { result = -1; }

You reversed the "<" and the order of "a" & "b" should've reversed only one
of them.
(Hope that's it)
