Sort it in the controller or model, wherever the find() is.  Often:

@upcoming_tour_requests = TourRequests.find(:all, :order => 'date')

Anything SQL accepts can go in the :order value, 'date DESC', 'id', etc.

Another point, blank? is for strings, empty? is standard Ruby for arrays.

You'll want to do that when the data is marshalled, not in the view or 
parital code... look into the controller to see how your data is 
retrieved.

Then, the model whose is being displayed should be able to provide the 
data in the desired order...

How about making the  a remote link and have a action that pulls
the @tour_requests sorted from the parameter and then update the
partial div. ?
