Hello, I have a simple but working search function but want change the result sort order by selecting a new sorting from a drop down. The problem is that the result list does not seems to update every time I change drop down selection. Why? Is it some kind of cache problem? from search.aspx:



  
    
    
        Sort:
        
	    
            
            
            
        
    
    
  
  
    
        "><%# databinder.eval(container.dataitem, "pagename")%> (<%# databinder.eval(container.dataitem, "changed", "{0:d}")%>)
        
            <%# getpreviewtext(container.dataitem as episerver.core.pagedata) %>

and from the search.aspx.cs


		protected void SortDropDownList_Changed(object sender, EventArgs e)
		{
			System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList sortDropDown = (System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList)sender;

			// public enum FilterSortOrder
			// ---------------------------
			// Alphabetical			Sorted alphabetical on name
			// ChangedDescending	Most recently changed page will be first in list
			// CreatedAscending		Oldest created page will be first in list
			// CreatedDescending	Most recently created page will be first in list 
			// Index				Sorted on page index
			// None
			// PublishedAscending	Oldest published page will be first in list
			// PublishedDescending	Most recently published page will be first in list
			// Rank					Sort on ranking, only supported by special controls
			switch (sortDropDown.SelectedValue)
			{
				case "Alphabetical":
					SearchResult.SortOrder = EPiServer.Filters.FilterSortOrder.Alphabetical;
					break;
				case "AlphabeticalDescending":
					SearchResult.SortOrder = EPiServer.Filters.FilterSortOrder.Alphabetical;
					SearchResult.SortDirection = EPiServer.Filters.FilterSortDirection.Descending;
					break;
				case "CreatedDescending":
					SearchResult.SortOrder = EPiServer.Filters.FilterSortOrder.CreatedDescending;
					break;
				case "CreatedAscending":
					SearchResult.SortOrder = EPiServer.Filters.FilterSortOrder.CreatedAscending;
					break;
			}
		}

thanx

Om Du använder en PageSearch för att presentera resultatet, så finns det en egenskap där för sortering SearchResults.SortBy = drpSort.SelectedValue.ToString(); I listboxen har jag egenskaper på sidan Senast startat Senast avslutat

Thank you for the reply Helena, however, my problem seems to be that the EPiServer:PageList is not updated correctly. PageList too has a SortBy property (though I am using SortOrder and SortDirection), but it only change the sort sometimes. Perhaps due to cache?
