Sorting product category list alphabetically

[sui_page]

I have a select option which displayes a certaing product category. How can I change this so it displays alphabetically?

Code Select Expand

<?php
$product = array();
$product[]= JHTML::_('select.option','','-select-');
echo $lists['product']= JHTML::_('select.genericList',$product,'product','class="inputbox" size="1"', 'value', 'text'); 
?>

For Product ordering, have you looked under VM config  - Product Ordering Tab?   This appears to allow for product ordering.

/administrator/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=config

If you are able to get things sorted by using the settings here, then no code changes are needed.

I did try that method but it didn't work. I was using a custom application which was displaying the list at runtime so the solution involved a bit of AJAX work.
