Top Ten- sort alphabetically, not by number of hits?
How can I sort my top ten list (I am using JPDeni's top ten records mod) alphabetically?

thanks,

it may not work but have you tried just adding so= within the display link?

<a href="$db_script_link_url&$db_key=$rec{$db_key}&view_records=1&ww=1&so=1">$rec{'FieldName'}</a>

I know the Top 10 by Gender allows sorting by a specific field but it also states that there should be more than 3 options to use this method. So adding a list of alpha fields to sort by using that means wouldn't work.

I'm not using the display link, but I don't think that works. I'm going to try replacing <=> with cmp to see if that works. Otherwise, I was thinking about just opening it in a spreadsheet format or something...
