    OrderBy returns wrong sorting when "Name" contains danish letters

    Hello,

    I am facing an issue when trying to sort a DynamicNodeList alphabetically when the words contains non-english characters.

    The letter 'å' seems to be treated like the letter 'a' with an accent instead of an independant letter.

    This results in an example sequence of
        {'Målgruppe', 'Marked', 'Moderne'}

    when in fact the sequence should be
        {'Marked', 'Moderne', 'Målgruppe'}.

    I have not found any way to fix this using .OrderBy("Name")

    Is there a way to change the language to use when sorting?

    Can someone help me get this right?

     

    Thanks in advance

    Mikkel Johansen

    If the LINQ is done via the NHibernate LINQ provider, this will most likely be based on the collation of your database.

    I have a similar issue and I was hoping you guys might be able to help me. I have a GlobalFunctions.cshtml file where I have a SortList function that takes and returns a DynamicNodeList.

    As the site is bi-lingual, I need to sort the nodes in the DynamicNodeList by the title attribute depending on the culture. I've tried to apply the techniques suggested in the SO link but DynamicNodeList.OrderBy<T>() only takes one argument, the property. It doesn't allow me to specify a culture.

    Does anyone know of a way in which I can perform a culture specific sort on a DynamicNodeList?

    Thanks
