I've been trying to get this query to work to no avail. Both parts work in isolation. I am able to replace the IN clause with an ILIKE statement and the ORDER BY works fine. But in combination with the IN statement, the ORDER BY statement does not actually order the results, though no errors are thrown and the IN section returns results as expected. Am I missing something simple here? I haven't been able to turn up any results on google...
