Milestone bug list doesn't sort properly

Affects Status Importance Assigned to Milestone

Bug Description

Example:

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+milestone/ubuntu-6.10-beta

Clicking the 'status' column header seems to sort by importance. Importance seems to sort by bug number. Assignee seems to sort by the report summary(?). I can't sort by status, which is what I want.

Looks like the Javascript column sort code doesn't handle the fact that the first column header has COLSPAN="3". So the headers after that sort by the column two to the left (when counting the bug icon, bug number and bug title as separate columns).

This is very annoying (and slows me down) when I am doing releases, so if we could get this fixed quickly, that'd be good.

Kiko, can you take a look at this? If you're interested, here's a fix which works perfectly in Opera, but breaks in Firefox: https://devpad.canonical.com/~andrew/paste/fileO5m2wd.html

I've got the same problem in my project, since we've recently switched to using the milestone thing to manage our time-based deployment schedule.

This affects beta as well. Or at least it has a similar bug.

This is becoming increasingly critical for us, as we're working on the final release milestones. A lack of sorting makes it easier to overlook bugs, and slows the process of checking our progress.

As a quick fix, can we just suppress the display of fixed bugs on that page?
