I wrote a simple plug-in that will insert elements in alphabetical
order (by id) for you:
http://ff6600.org/j/jquery.insertInOrder.js

Use it like:

<div id="group">
<div id="alpha"></div>
<div id="beta"></div>
<div id="gamma"></div>
<div id="epsilon"></div>
</div>

$('<div id="delta"/>').insertInOrder('#group');

feel free to change the naming and alter the code :]

cheers,
