title: How can i sort months using SortField in Flex3?
body: <p>I am sorting xmllist profilexml. In the list dates and months are sorted using <code>SortField</code>. It is sorting up to September month. After that Oct, Nov, and Dec are coming and displaying on the top in the datagrid.</p>
  
  <pre><code>finalList = new XMLListCollection(profileXml);
  var sortL:Sort = new Sort();
  sortL.fields = [new SortField("startDate", true)];
  finalList.sort = sortL;
  finalList.refresh();
  popupProfile.dataGrid.dataProvider = finalList;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My XmlList is in this format: <code>&lt;startDate&gt;1/11/2011&lt;/startDate&gt;</code>.</p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;startDate&gt;2/15/2011&lt;/startDate&gt;</code> as per my understanding it is sorting until 0-9 numeric fields only. Is there anything I need to add in this code for numeric sorting?</p>
