newbie started using YUI API to write some small programs. While doing some stuff related to
Sorting a column with names

here is data table declaration for name field

{key:"fullName", label:"Name", sortable:true, className: 'col1'},

names like {"adam", "will", "john", "jessica"} are getting sorted

but when i add {"adam", "will-smith", "john", "jessica"}

hyphenated name will-smith i see the sorted column with "will-smith" always first then followed by alpahbetical sorting order.

any suggestion how to go about to sort hyphenated names with regular names.

Thanks,
chandu

used Bold only to indicate that having problem sorting hyphentaed names

like "will-smith" , "rob-joy" when they are mixed with regular names without hyphen

like "bob" "alice" etc.
