'A'..'Z' paging cause I'm being lazy & I don't want to mess around with default paginate.

# Starts with 'A'..'Z' Paginate / model
def self.sort(sort)
  if sort
    find(:all, :conditions => ['name LIKE ?', "#{sort}%"])
  else
    find(:all, :order => 'name')
  end  
end
  
# index action / controller
@models = Model.sort(params[:sort]) 
 
# Sort link A-Z / view
<a href="models?sort=A">A</a>
