I have a created a membership directory using Links 2, and have had requests to add a page that sorts members by birthday. The directory lists families, with up to seven names each, and birthdays are in a unique field for each of the names, so I know this can be done. I can get it to print just the birthday and name for each entry (mr, mrs, child 1 - 5), but I need it to combine all the birthday entries, then sort them numerically. Dates are entered month-day (4-27), so sorting on the numbers before the dash first, then after it, is needed. This can be a text file or an HTML page. I have been out of Perl for awhile, so what may be obvious is escaping me. Any help out there...?
