dates not properly sorted in Angular.js

be aware that it will compare string. It won't compare Dates. You will have to deal with Dates object.

Here is a talk about this.

Here is the solution from vojtajina

Here is part of the solution:

Main.prototype = {    sort: function(item) {        if (this.predicate == 'date') {            return new Date(item.date);        }        return item[this.predicate];    },    sortBy: function(field) {        if (this.predicate != field) {            this.predicate = field;            this.reverse = false;        } else {            this.reverse = !this.reverse;        }    },    reverse: false};

If you want to just order Ascending or Descending, simply

<tr ng-repeat="record in data | orderBy:record.creation_date">    <td>{{record.name}}</td></tr>

just you need to always keep your date in similar format.

change

data = [  {    "name": "Test_1_Test",    "creation_date": "08/02/2013 10:31:02 AM"  },  {    "name": "Test_2_Test",    "creation_date": "08/01/2013 9:12:32 AM"  },  {    "name": "Test_3_Test",    "creation_date": "09/13/2013 4:55:09 AM"  }]
