etc.. The field specifies either a numerical attribute combinations consisting of type=value pairs separated by comma (e.g.
1=4,2=1) ; or the field may specify a plain string criteria (e.g. title. The flags is a sequence of the following characters
which may not be separated by any white space.
Sort Flags
o a - Sort ascending
o d - Sort descending
o i - Case insensitive sorting

1=4 ia
