Summary0008615: CDash Dev: Sorting the 'Min' columns is not a numeric sort.
DescriptionThis is not as high a priority as the other issues but the timing 'Min' (minute) columns are not being sorted by numerically. For example, if you go to :

    http://trilinos-dev.sandia.gov/cdash/index.php?project=Trilinos&date=2009-02-26&display=project [^]

and click on Test 'Min' twice, you will see that it sorts the test timing under 'Nightly' as:


    8.7 2009-02-25T01:44:11 MST Sundance
    5.2 2009-02-25T01:23:29 MST Anasazi
    4.1 2009-02-25T00:06:28 MST Sacado
    11.1 2009-02-25T00:38:47 MST NOX
    1.6 2009-02-25T00:58:39 MST Sundance
    1.3 2009-02-25T02:18:51 MST Anasazi
    1.2 2009-02-25T00:32:00 MST Anasazi


The 11.1 should be at the top because it takes the longest time but instead it is sorted after 8.1, 5.2, and 4.1 which indicates an ASCII-based sort instead of a numeric sort.

I don't know if anyone else has reported this or not but it is a minor annoyance.

Julien,

That is strange. I tried this on both MS IE and FireFox on my Windows XP laptop and the behavior described above is shown in both. Perhaps we should use Adobe Connect so you can see my browsers and see sorting problem?

Let me know if you want to use Adobe Connect and view the reported behavior my web browsers.

Thanks,

- Ross

Strange, it seems that now it fails on my webbrowser. I'll investigate when I get a chance.

I am not going crazy but I just closed by browsers, opened them again and did the same sort and now the data is being sorted correctly. I can't explain this but I would be currious to see if other Trilinos developers happen to see this or not. If they don't sort then the will not :-)

I guess we can close this issue but I will see if this happens again and let you know.

I changed a little bit the javascript code, maybe it's going to help.
