I haven't looked into a quick-fix for this issue i'm seeing with tablesorter, and before i fix it myself, was wondering if somebody else already had.  Did you ever notice that when you click in the sample on  http://tablesorter.com/docs/ that let's say, you sort on "Difference" first... it does it ascending, as expected.  Then, go click on another column (no difference which), and then come back to "Difference"... You'll see that it defaults it to do a "descending" search, rather than, the initial formatted "ascending" search.  Is this the way it's intended to handle the situation, or just an oversight?

I will go ahead and fix it for my usage, but I'd assume that if a person sorts on a column, goes to another, than comes back to sort on original column, that it should stick to the default, rather than "remember" the last thing done and do the opposite...

Please advise on this.

Thanks!
