<br>
Can't test this right now, but shouldn't the marker text be this
(add "icons:" to the forced sort) ..<br>
<br>
<$nopage>icons:see also event icons [icons:aaa]<br>
<br>
If the marker has 2 levels, then the forced sort string also
needs two levels. With just "[aaa]", that would sort "icons"
under the "A" section of the index.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
