    Hello,

    I have a problem getting my tag.php pages that hold tagged posts from my site to order the resulting contents.

    I want the items to appear in alphabetical order, and although adding

    <?php query_posts('posts_per_page=5&&category_name=clients&orderby=title&order=asc');
  ?>

    to my category(CLIENTS) page works (https://sitepreview.annscott.co.uk/clients), when I try to apply to my tag.php page it doesn’t display the posts in alphabetical order.
    https://sitepreview.annscott.co.uk/tag/americas

    Here is the code I have in the tag.php page

    <ul id="destinations">
<li class="header first"><?php wp_title(); ?></li>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<div class="imagehold2">
<?php the_content(__('(more...)')); ?></div>
<span class="desheader"><?php the_title(); ?></span>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
 </li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>

    I’ve tried several different things and can’t fix, any help would be greatly received.

    When I add that to the tag.php template, anywhere at all, the page doesnt work (I get a blank page). The full page for the tag.php is

    <?php
  get_header();
  if (have_posts()): ?>
 <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/nav2.php'); ?>
      <div id="maincontent">
      <div id="intro">
			        <h1>CLIENTS</h1>
					<p class="introcopy">Luxury hotels, resorts, villas & restaurants; glamorous
					  spas, health retreats & beauty products; specialist travel companies;
				    family holidays; yoga, golf & ski.</p>
					<p class="bottomheader">&nbsp;</p>

				</div>

                 <div id="secondaryContent">
        <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/testsidebar.php'); ?>
      </div>

  <ul id="destinations">

  <li class="header first"><?php wp_title(); ?></li>

  <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   <li id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

     <div class="imagehold2">
	 <?php the_content(__('(more...)')); ?></div>

      <span class="desheader"><?php the_title(); ?></span>

       <?php the_excerpt(); ?> 

 </li>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
  </ul>
<?php else: ?>
  <p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<?php
  endif;
  ?>
   <div id="pagination" class="noline">

     <?php if(function_exists('wp_paginate')) {
    wp_paginate();
} ?>

   <div class="top"><a href="#">back to top</a></div>
    </div>

  <?php
  get_footer();
?>

    I managed to fix this…

    i added 

    <?php $posts=query_posts($query_string . '&orderby=title&order=asc');
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

    where I previously had

    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

    and removed at the top of my page where I once had

    <?php

  get_header();

  if (have_posts()): ?>

    i just have

    <?php

  get_header();
 ?>

    Easy when you know how, I hope this helps someone…
