This will sort a bunch of objects in a array by a object property

sortarrayofobjects.js

sortJsonArrayByProperty: function(objArray, prop, direction){
      if (arguments.length<2) throw new Error("sortJsonArrayByProp requires 2 arguments");
      var direct = arguments.length>2 ? arguments[2] : 1; //Default to ascending
      if (objArray && objArray.constructor===Array){
        var propPath = (prop.constructor===Array) ? prop : prop.split(".");
        objArray.sort(function(a,b){
