So here is my best summary of the behavior you are seeing. We have seen this behavior since around 2.1.x, and I believe this behavior is on purpose. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Normally what we see is that there will be an entry for the 1xx entry in the proper alphabetical position for the text of the 1xx. Then there will be other entries for each of the 4xx/5xx fields of that authority record, in the proper alphabetical position based on the text of each 4xx/5xx field in the record. All these repeated entires are displayed visually identical, with the 1xx text displayed aligned to the left, and with the 4xx/5xx fields aligned to the right.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Here are some examples from our newly updated EG 2.4 system...</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div style="">A) In our system we have an authority record for a musician called Ben Harper that look more or less like this:</div>
<div style=""><br></div><div style="">100 $a Harper, Ben $d 1969</div><div style="">400 $a Harper, Benjamin Chase $d 1969</div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">When we right click on the term "Harper, Ben" inside a 100/700 tag within a Bib record, the content of the context menu is something like....</div>
<div style=""><br></div><div style="">...</div><div style="">Harper, Winard</div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">Harper, Ben / 1969</div><div style=""> See from: Harper, Benjamin Chase</div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">Harper, Benjamin</div>
<div style=""><br></div><div style="">Harper, Ben / 1969</div><div> See from: Harper, Benjamin Chase</div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">Harper, Benny</div><div>...</div><div><br></div><div style="">In this case there are two repeated entries for Ben Harpers 1xx/4xx authority entry. The first one appears frist because it is sorting based on the 1xx value, and the second one appears second because it is being sorted by the 4xx value.</div>
<div style=""><br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">B) Another good example is the behavior of the authority records related to the musician Tom Morello, who is also known as Nightwatchman. As well as the related musical group called Street Sweeper Social Club.</div>
<div style=""><br></div><div style="">Their authority records look more or less like this...</div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><div>100 $a Morello, Tom $d 1964-</div><div>400 $a Nightwatchman $d 1964-</div>
</div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">100 $a Nightwatchman $d 1964-</div><div style="">400 $a Night Watchman $d 1964-</div><div style="">500 $a Morello, Tom $d 1964-<br></div><div style="">
<br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style=""><div>110 $a Street Sweeper Social Club</div><div style="">410 $a SSSC</div><div>500 $a Nightwatchman $d 1964-</div><div style="">500 $a Riley, Boots 700</div><div style="">
<br></div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">When we right click on the term "Nightwatchman" inside a 100/700 tag within a Bib record, the content of the context menu is something like....<br></div><div style=""><br></div>
<div style="">...</div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">Nightmares on Wax (Musical Group)</div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">Nightranger</div><div style=""><br></div></div><div style="">Nightwatchman / 1964-</div><div style=""> See from: Nightwatchman / 1964-</div>
<div style=""> See also: Morello, Tom / 1964-</div><div><br></div><div style="">Morello, Tom / 1964-</div><div style=""> See also: Nightwatchman / 1964-</div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">Street Sweeper Social Club</div>
<div style=""> See from: SSSC</div><div style=""> See also: Nightwatchman / 1964-</div><div style=""> See also: Riley, Boots</div><div><br></div><div style="">Nightwish (Musical Grop)</div><div><br></div><div style="">Nigl, Georg</div>
<div style=""><br></div><div>...</div><div> </div><div>In this case even though we expect to be browsing terms that start with the letter "n", we are seeing entires that appear to start with "Morello" and "Street", because the sorting in those cases is based on the right aligned 4xx/5xx values and not the left aligned 1xx values.</div>
<div><br></div><div style="">Hope this make sense. Let me know if you have other questions.</div><div style=""><br></div><div style="">Good luck,</div><div style="">Yamil</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br>On May 14, 2013, at 10:11 PM, Mark Cooper <<a href="mailto:markchristophercooper@gmail.com" target="_blank">markchristophercooper@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>
