In one folder I have a several objects of my custom class - it has several attributes - name, company, att3, ...
At first objects are sorted by name. And I would like to add a function for users to be able to choose by which of the attributes they want to sort the objects.
Has anybody solved this? I believe it is a simple condition, I just can't get it. Thanks a lot

Hi Marian,
seeing as how you dont have any other solutions offered yet... You could just do the fetch again based on a different key. Im not sure how else you could re-sort. Arran

Thanks for answer - the matter is that i don't know how to do this practically - let's say i use $order as a parameter for sort_by, but how should I add a value to the variable $order?

You can get input from user with view parameteres, and then use this either directly or via a switch as sort filter :)

Or have I misread your post? If you want to sort first by name, then by other attribute (when name is the same), then you can use an array in the sort order.

I don't understand only two things - what are "view parameters" and what is the "swith" :-) I have never been strong in such things, but I have to complete this, so sorry for such questions...

On view parameters, you might find info here: http://www.ez.no/community/forum/developer/url_parameters
Switches: http://www.ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/development/libraries/ez_template/functions/switch
