It could be that the plugin is case-sensitive  Try inputting Te instead of te  You can probably have your results setup to not be case-sensitive  This question might help   For a custom sort function on an Array  you can use any JavaScript function and pass it as parameter to an Array s sort   method like this    x000D   x000D  var array     White 023    White    White flower    Teatr    x000D   x000D  array sort function x  y    x000D    if  x  lt  y    x000D      return -1  x000D      x000D    if  x  gt  y    x000D      return 1  x000D      x000D    return 0  x000D      x000D   x000D     Teatr White White 023 White flower x000D  document write array   x000D   x000D   x000D    More Info here on    Array sort
