Formatted text fields can contain paragraph and line breaks, and can exceed
255 characters. You cannot sort on formatted text fields.

characteristics. Simple text fields cannot contain paragraph or line breaks,
and cannot exceed 255 characters. You can sort on simple text fields.

.gif (animated, embedded, interlaced), .jpg, .pct, .pcx, .png, .psd, .tga, or .tif.
You can sort on image file fields. NetObjects Fusion uses the file names to
sort the image files.
