No, you can't do that. Your jsonObj is an *object*, not an array, so it has
no sort order.
If you want to be able to sort your object, it needs to be an array, e.g.
var jsonObj = [
{
"Name" : "B",
"Position" : "Sr"
},
{
"Name" : "S",
"Position" : "Sr"
},
{
"Name" : "A",
"Position" : "Jr"
}
];
That is something you can sort. You can use JavaScript's sort() method of
the Array object with a callback function that compares two elements as you
wish.
If you have a large number of elements in the array, a sort callback can
slow down sorting. Let me know if this is the case - I have a very fast
array sort method for just this situation. To late at night for me to post
it right now, but remind me tomorrow...
