I am trying to use the NewsListing snippet to list information about speakers who talk before a weekly forum.

What I am trying is very similar to what hmueller wrote about in his entry "NewsListing - sorting of". Unfortunately, I can't figure out what he did to make his work.

I need to be able to control the order documents in a folder are displayed by the NewsListing snippet.

The easiest way to do that would seem to be to do a sort by Title.

I've played around with the code, but nothing I've tried works.

Any suggestions that might get me headed in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I have sorted my news items by changing the following line:

$resource = $etomite->getAllChildren($resourceparent, 'unpub_date', 'ASC', $fields='id, pagetitle, unpub_date, longtitle, description, createdon, createdby');

In this case, I am sorting my news items by the 'unpub-date' (unpublish date of the document) and the sort method is 'ASC' (ascending).

Hope this helps...

Mr. Tech,

That worked!

Thanks
