[ic] UI Layout Editor - Area - Contains order

[Greg Gaskill]

Brian,

  Sorry I took so long to reply to this but I had 70+ emails in this mailing
list to
go through first (making sure nobody else answered you already).

  I had this very same problem with the areas not moving up and down the
list
normally and what I found when I went to edit the area table manually was
that not all my areas had the same value for 'which_page'.  So all I did was
edit the areas table in the spreadsheet view and made each 'which_page'
= 'all'.  Then I changed the 'sort' values right next to that column to
values
from 00 to 09 in the order I wanted the columns displayed.

  I think you could also just make the 'sort' value be 'ZZ' to get
alphabetical
sorting (Not sure about that one, since I don't have any 'ZZ's remaining in
my fields-but you might see one like it when you go into table-edit on
yours)

Greg
