Biblatex: sortcites=true, style=alphabetic but the references to the literature are not sorted

[David]

Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to make biblatex sort the elements that are
referring to the authors. I tried every example I found and it does
not work for me. Then I installed TexLive 2009 an hour ago and it
still doesnt work. So does it work at all?

I invoke biblatex with the following settings:

\usepackage[%
sorting=anyt,%
sortcites=true,%
firstinits=true,%
uniquename=init,%
bibencoding=inputenc,%
sortlos=bib,%
style=alphabetic,%
bibstyle=alphabetic,%
citestyle=alphabetic,%
minnames=3,%
maxnames=3,%
date=long,%
abbreviate=false,%
useprefix=true,%
autopunct=true,%
%indexing=true,%bib/cite
backref=true,%
hyperref=auto%
]{biblatex}

Whatever I try I get [Tau00; FDC03; HP04; LP05; MDS+03; Sim94; YZX
+04; CDR00] in the pdf. I would like to have it sorted by name,year as
[CDR00;
FDC03; HP04; LP05; MDS+03; Sim94; Tau00; YZX+04] or by year,name as
[Sim94; CDR00; Tau00;
FDC03; MDS+03; HP04; YZX+04; LP05]

Again: Is this possible to let biblatex do the work?

Cheers,
Dave

Citations are currently sorted like the entries in the bibliography.
You can use the "sorting" to choose a different order but that will
also affect the bibliography (which is probably not what you want).
