I have been using this for some time now and it works RELY good on my site.
There is one problem. FF have been updater and don’t support this way any more. I have send in a bug to FF development, but it can take forever to be solved.
Have a look at http://www.odinsoft.dk/test/Dropdowntest.html in both FF and IE.
Can there be done a work around on this problem ??

Works beautifully… unlike most plugin functions I had this thing working in less than 2 seconds!

Thanks! I needed to be able to sort a wrapped set by element ID, and this helped me do it. Will be mentioning this post on my blog, http://slade73.blogspot.com.

This is because in jQuery-1.3.2, the sort method uses the built in array sort.
