Hi I am having a problem in date.
I am having a custom dateChooser.
In the dateChooser component highlights some holidays and at the same time lists the holidays in a container.
The Problem is the date I am displaying in the container is not in ascending order could some one please help.
Link for the demo application with view source enabled
http://125.22.254.206/clients/flexdemos/calendardemo/calendardemo.html
The said logic is implemented in ExtendedDateChooser.as under custome folder.

Are you trying to sort the date in the 'holidayView' vbox? You cant compare and sort two dates. You can use the date comparison method given below (search the web to find a better one).If the control in the vbox to display holidays is a datagrid, using
<mx:DataGridColumn
headerText="Created Date"
date="createdDt"
sortCompareFunction="date_sortCompareFunc">
</mx:DataGridColumn>
in the tag attribute will result in sortedDate
private function date_sortCompareFunc(itemA:Object, itemB:Object):int
{
/* Date.parse() returns an int, but
ObjectUtil.dateCompare() expects two
Date objects, so convert String to
int to Date. */
var dateA:Date=isoToDate(itemA.createdDt);
var dateB:Date=isoToDate(itemB.createdDt);
return ObjectUtil.dateCompare(dateB, dateA);
}
private function isoToDate(value:String):Date {
var dateStr:String = value;
dateStr = dateStr.replace(/\-/g, "/");
dateStr = dateStr.replace("T", " ");
dateStr = dateStr.replace("Z", " GMT-0000");
return new Date(Date.parse(dateStr));
}

I think, you cant sort by Date.
First, I can't see the container in your app.
My way would be to parse the date in to milliseconds since 1970
parse(date:String):Number
Then you can sort it by some logic.
