This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: The options shown in a View filter should be in alphabetical order, but the Danish characters like Å, æ and ø are not sorted correctly.
Solution: Check your database configuration. MySQL sorts differently based on the collation type, and utf8_danish_ci is probably best for your site.

I am trying to:
My development site is in Danish, when I add a 'select' filter, the options are supposed to display in name order. However, my client tells me that the order is incorrect and that Å is the last letter in the Danish alphabet, but it comes first. How can I sort this and make sure Danish letters are correct? Including æ and ø.
Link to a page where the issue can be seen:

(Please only use this page, Google Places API is live on the site, so too many refreshes = too many API calls!)
I expected to see:
Under the 'Steder' dropdown - Årby should be at the end as it's the final character in the Danish alphabet
Instead, I got:
Årby appearing at the top
