This is a script I’m writing for work. What I’m trying to accomplish here is to take the data entered into the textarea and rearrange it in numerical order. The perfect order would be the numbers with dashes first and then the numbers with no dashes. I haven’t completed it because I can’t seem to get past the If Else part of the reOrder function. I tried to comment everything to explain what I’m trying to do. If I missed anything please let me know.
Thanks
