I browse the Emporiums often looking for deals, bargains, and things I can use in the near future. I noticed that sorting items in the Emporium by quantity or price the sorting function seems to sort these as text i.e. 97 comes before 950,000 followed by 94.
If it weren't too much trouble could these be changed to sort as actual numerical?
I've done coding before (back in the dark ages) and realize that sometimes the simplest sounding change is the more difficult thing to accomplish.
Any effort would be appreciated by me.

DanaLee, I understand your pain and agree 100%. Know that you are not alone.
Re: Player Emporium Sorting
I'll need to assign some time to this. We use a certain library file for the data-tables and it doesn't sort numbers as you wish. I will need to update the lib file and if my memory calls we didn't due to an issue it had with the way Blind Players interact with the tables.
But I will add it to my list to look at... this one will only be possible IF it doesn't cause issues elsewhere.

I understand. Thanks for checking. As I said in my original post " ... sometimes the simplest sounding change is the more difficult thing to accomplish. "
If it can be done without driving you nuts (well, more so than you already are) give it a go.
