Description Chris Ward 2009-04-20 12:12:25 UTC
Description of problem:
I'd like to be able to sort the bugzilla search results tables more flexibly, namly, sorting by 2 or more columns; at least 2. 

For example, sort first based on component, then based on severity.

You can do this now. If you click on a column's header at the top of the table, it will sort on that column. If you click the same column again it sorts it in the opposite direction. If you click on a different column header, it will sort on that column in addition to the previous sorted column. And so on if you click multiple columns. You can then save the search which will also save the sorting info. Also a cookie is set called LASTORDER which is used when you go back to buglist.cgi each time until you change the sort order.
