Sorting Divs in jQuery by Custom Sort Order

Question

I\'m trying to re-sort the child elements of the tag input by comparing their category attribute to the category order in the Javascript variable category_sor

Answer 1

Just note,

Since there is jQuery 1.3.2 sorting is simple without any plugin like:

$('#input div').sort(CustomSort).appendTo('#input');
function CustomSort( a ,b ){
     //your custom sort function returning -1 or 1
     //where a , b are $('#input div') elements
}

This will sort all div that are childs of element with id="input" .
