[Javascript] object sort fails in IE

[Flavio Gomes]

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


or with my MDS (Mega Debug System) just uncomment:
 if ( a.labelString > b.labelString ) { /*alert(a.labelString + ' < ' +
b.labelString); */result = 1; }
 if ( a.labelString < b.labelString ) { /*alert(a.labelString + ' > ' +
b.labelString); */result = -1; }
