Actually I already wrote the sort by option in my javascript. It is not working in Interent Explorer 9 version but it's working all other browsers and IE 11 as well. Is there any tags need to give for that?

XML

<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=Windows-1252">
<script type="text/javascript">
var people, asc1 = 1, asc2 = 1;
window.onload = function() {
people = document.getElementById("people");
}

function sort_table(tbody, col, asc) {
var rows = tbody.rows, rlen = rows.length, arr = new Array(), i, j, cells, clen;
// fill the array with values from the table
for (i = 0; i < rlen; i++) {
cells = rows[i].cells;
clen = cells.length;
arr[i] = new Array();
for (j = 0; j < clen; j++) {
arr[i][j] = cells[j].innerHTML;
}
}
// sort the array by the specified column number (col) and order (asc)
arr.sort(function(a, b) {
return (a[col] == b[col]) ? 0
: ((a[col] > b[col]) ? asc : -1 * asc);
});
// replace existing rows with new rows created from the sorted array
for (k = 0; k < rlen; k++) {
rows[k].innerHTML = "<td class='tdclass'>"
+ arr[k].join("</td><td class='tdclass'>") + "</td>";
}

}

function selectRadio() {
var radioValue="";
if (document.getElementById('radioId1').checked) {
sort_table(people, 2, asc1); asc1 *= -1; asc2 = 1;
} else if (document.getElementById('radioId2').checked) {
sort_table(people, 2, asc2); asc2 *= -1; asc1 = 1;
}


}
</script>

<td class="tdheadclass"><input type="button" value="New Search" /><span class="tab"></span></td>

May be you should provide your code ask how to make it work with IR9.

Here is the code...
<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=Windows-1252">
<script type="text/javascript">
var people, asc1 = 1, asc2 = 1;
window.onload = function() {
people = document.getElementById("people");
}

function sort_table(tbody, col, asc) {
var rows = tbody.rows, rlen = rows.length, arr = new Array(), i, j, cells, clen;
// fill the array with values from the table
for (i = 0; i < rlen; i++) {
cells = rows[i].cells;
clen = cells.length;
arr[i] = new Array();
for (j = 0; j < clen; j++) {
arr[i][j] = cells[j].innerHTML;
}
}
// sort the array by the specified column number (col) and order (asc)
arr.sort(function(a, b) {
return (a[col] == b[col]) ? 0
: ((a[col] > b[col]) ? asc : -1 * asc);
});
// replace existing rows with new rows created from the sorted array
for (k = 0; k < rlen; k++) {
rows[k].innerHTML = "<td class='tdclass'>"
+ arr[k].join("</td><td class='tdclass'>") + "</td>";
}

}

function selectRadio() {
var radioValue="";
if (document.getElementById('radioId1').checked) {
sort_table(people, 2, asc1); asc1 *= -1; asc2 = 1;
} else if (document.getElementById('radioId2').checked) {
sort_table(people, 2, asc2); asc2 *= -1; asc1 = 1;
}

}
</script>

I have put your code in the question, it is the place you should have put it from beginning.
You can "improve your question if the end of the code is missing.
