Hello all,
I have a table for a list of abbreviations and I need to sort that table based on the
first letter in each abbreviation.
For example
{table}
Apple
Banana
Doner
{table}
When the user edits the table and add for example a new word with A. I want it ot be
inserted in the right position.
More or less I have some contents in a form of a list or a table and I want to sort them
automatically after any edit or addition.
If you want this make based on XWiki stuff, I think you must elaborate a
bit the idea. For instance, to create a custom class to hold
abreviations and any information related to them, created an object for
each abbreviation and retrieve ordered objects with any of the available
XWiki methods.
Once again, let me post two "must understand" tutorials to start working
with XWiki:

http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial
Another option: rely on any of the supported scripting languages. For
instance:

Hope this helps,
Ricardo
