How do I automatically sort an ELPlaylist?

I am using the foonate skin: http://midisurf87.deviantart.com/art/Fooba...-Skin-305100833 , and it sends search results straight to a playlist. However, the search results are never sorted, so the albums are always out of order. How do I get the playlist to sort every time it is changed? The default sort is fine.

Here is the code for the playlist:
Code: [Select]
//------------Background

$drawrect(0,0,%_width%,%_height%,$get_ps_global(bg.color),$get_ps_global(bg.color),)
$drawrect(2,$sub(%_height%,28),797,32,65-65-65,150-150-150,RESERVED)

//------------Toolbar

$puts(toolbar.h,26)
$gradientrect(0,0,%_width%,$get(toolbar.h),65-65-65,60-60-60,,vertical)

//------------Buttons

$puts(button.top,2)
$puts(button.left,$sub(%_width%,62))

//------------Playlist

$puts(play.left,802)
$puts(play.top,$add($get(toolbar.h),2))
$puts(play.height,$sub(%_height%,$get(play.top)))
$puts(button.top,4)
$puts(button.bottom,9)
$puts(button.left,$sub(%_width%,56))
$if($isvisible_c(ELplaylist),

                $movepanel_c(Graphical Browser,0,26,800,$sub(%_height%,54))
                $movepanel_c(ELPlaylist,$get(play.left),$get(play.top),$add(%_width%,-798),$sub(%_height%,29))
    $imagebutton($add($get(button.left),26),$get(button.top),20,20,$get_ps_global(image.path)'/bt/covers_off.png',$get_ps_global(image.path)'/bt/covers_on.png',PANELSHOW:ELPlaylist:0;REFRESH,,)

I tried adding sorting COMMANDs, but they didn't work, even though the same commands worked if I used them on a hotkey, and other COMMANDs work fine in the same place in the code. I would like something more elegant anyway though.
