So I got the cloud sorting alphabetically by changing the
sort function from
[code]
if ($.dynaCloud.sort) {
cl.sort(function(a, b) {
if (a.count == b.count) {
return a.el < b.el ? -1 : (a.el == b.el ? 0 : 1);
}
else {
return a.count < b.count ? 1 : -1;
}
});
}
[/code]
to
[code]
if ($.dynaCloud.sort) {
cl.sort(function(a, b) {
return a.el < b.el ? -1 : (a.el == b.el ? 0 : 1);
});
}
[/code]
still trying to figure out how to add an & into what I think is the
permitted character list.
var word = /^[a-z]*[A-Z]([A-Z]+|[a-z]{3,})/;
