I have a dropdown list on my php page, filled with data from MySQL Database and i want to sort it alphabetically, but i get this error: "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ILLEGAL".
What am I doing wrong?
HTML/PHP
//Somewhere on my form...
echo '<select name=\"dropdownlist\" onclick=\"sortlist(this.value)\">';
Javascript Function:
function sortlist(formtag)
{
var cl = document.getElementById(formtag);
var clTexts = new Array();
for(i = 2; i < cl.length; i++)
{
clTexts[i-2] =
cl.options[i].text.toUpperCase() + "," +
cl.options[i].text + "," +
cl.options[i].value;
}
clTexts.sort();
for(i = 2; i < cl.length; i++)
{
var parts = clTexts[i-2].split(',');
cl.options[i].text = parts[1];
cl.options[i].value = parts[2];
}
}
