RE: [flexcoders] datagrid column sorting

[Jason Weiss]

The sorting relies on ASCII values.  In the ASCII table Uppercase comes before lowercase.  If you need something beyond this, you’ll have to write the sorting logic yourself and update the dataProvider accordingly.   HTH, Jason   __________ Jason Weiss Cynergy Systems, Inc.

In my case it's a string. For some reason, the sorting on this column behaves differently.  I have data that begins with uppercase and lowercase letters, and columns that are just blank.  When I sort on this column I get uppercase, blank, and lowercase (and vice versa when sorting in the reverse order).  I'm expecting the sort to be uppercase, lowercase, and blank (and vice versa). Is anyone aware of such a behavior?  It's hard for me to pinpoint because I don't have this behavior on my local build, but it's there in a staging build.
