Anyone know how to organize the categories and sub categories in a drop down menu in alphabetical order?

it looks like it organizes the parent categories in alphabetical order but the sub categories are not.

Any help would be appreciated.

It looks like the culprit is in the file XoopsTree.php. Take a look at the function makeMySelBox(). It uses the $order parameter to query the database for the root items but doesn't pass on the $order param to the getChildTreeArray() function.

So to fix it change the line ~170

from:

$arr = $this->getChildTreeArray($catid);

to:

$arr = $this->getChildTreeArray($catid, $order);

and it works nicely.

I'll also post this in the Bug Report forum.

Nicely done! I've been looking at that file like a deer in the headlights since Monday trying to figure out what was missing.

I should've posted this question sooner.

Thanks Venezia
