Hello people, how are you?  
A have a question:

- How do I sort in "html standard" for a column? Example:  
**:: VIEW STANDARD ::  
ARTIST TRACK ALBUM YEAR GENRE**  
Bon Jovi Miracle Live! 2008 Hard Rock  
Zakk W. Fucking... 2 Album 2005 Metal  
Helloween Power Dark Ride 2009 Melodic Metal

**:: I WANT TO APPEAR SO - SORT by ALPHABETICALLY ::  
ARTIST TRACK ALBUM YEAR GENRE**  
Bon Jovi Miracle Live! 2008 Hard Rock  
Helloween Power Dark Ride 2009 Melodic Metal  
Zakk W. Fucking... 2 Album 2005 Metal

I want to appear like the second option, and ordered by the ARTIST column alphabetically.

Search for the line that says

$loop(%\_filename\_ext%)

and replace it with  
$loop(%artist%)
