Tablesorter images in column
- I'm using the tablesorter, nice plugin. My problem is in my table the second column will have an image and text beside it. When I try to sort the table sort tries its best with the text but it will not sort it properly. I think the image is causing the problem. I'm using the function to tell tablesorter to use the add parser but I'm not having any luck. I though it could sort by using the image alt text. Any help is appreciated.
[code]
$(function() {
$("#<%=manage_employees.ClientID%>").tablesorter({
headers: {
1: { sorter:'myimg' },
3: { sorter:'formattedNumbers'}, // RV changed 11/01/12 3 to 2
4: { sorter:'text'}
}
});
});
[/code]
[code]
$.tablesorter.addParser(
{
// set a unique id
id: 'myimg',
is: function(s)
{
// return false so this parser is not auto detected
return false;
},
format: function(s)
{
// format your data for normalization
return $(s).find('img').attr('alt');
},
// set type, either numeric or text
type: 'text'
});
[/code]
