Order Select Options Alphabetically
IF you ever have to organize a Select alphabetically you can use this Little Snippet I assume you use jQuery but you can always apply the same logic to make it just Javascript
See it live here: https://tinker.io/37028/3
function orderSelect($element) {
var options = $element.find('option'),
n_options = options.length,
temp = [],
parts,
i;
for(i = n_options; i --;) {
temp[i] = options[i].text + "," + options[i].value ;
}
temp.sort();
for(i = n_options; i --;) {
parts = temp[i].split(',');
options[i].text = parts[0];
options[i].value = parts[1];
}
