   Hi,

   In troubleshooting this problem, I noticed the question has been asked many times but is never actually answered. If someone could provide a working example, I'm sure many people (including me) would be very grateful.

   I'm sorting my posts alphabetically by Title on a category page, like so:

   $posts = query_posts($query_string .
   '&orderby=title&order=asc&posts_per_page=-1');

   I'd like to exclude articles such as "the", "a", and "an" from the sorting criteria.

   e.g.

   Aardvard
   Antique
   The Apple
   Attic

   It seems the most straightforward solution would be a custom SQL query, perhaps in conjunction with an automatically generated database column that strips the articles, but I'm having trouble getting it working. Please help!

   Thanks!
