[Javascript] Sorting Problem in Javascript

[Rajkumar M]

Hassan,
    Thanks.
The Function Load() returns false.
We haven't used any software to watch the load attempt. I am yet to receive
the error log and port used since it is occurring in the customer site.
Anyway thanks for your information
Rajkumar.

According to MSDN, load() returns true or false for success or
failure -- you could check that result.

(It also shows the argument to .async as false (boolean) rather than
"false" (as a string), but I don't know if that's significant.)

If it's not loading, it may be that it's trying port 80 instead of
sending the request to port 443; have you used Ethereal or some other
sniffer-type software to watch the load attempt?

Anything in the server error and access logs?

FWIW!
