tablesorter (FORK) is a jQuery plugin for turning a standard HTML table with THEAD and TBODY tags into a sortable table without page refreshes. tablesorter can successfully parse and sort many types of data including linked data in a cell. This forked version adds lots of new enhancements including: alphanumeric sorting, pager callback functons, multiple widgets providing column styling, ui theme application, sticky headers, column filters and resizer, as well as extended documentation with a lot more demos.

• Because of the change to the internal cache, the tablesorter v2.16+ core, filter widget and pager (both plugin & widget) will only work with the same version or newer files.

• See the full documentation.
• All of the original document pages have been included.
• Information from my blog post on undocumented options and lots of new demos have also been included.
• Change log moved from included text file into the wiki documentation.

• Check the FAQ page.
• Search the main documentation (click the menu button in the upper left corner).
• Search the issues to see if the question or problem has been brought up before, and hopefully resolved.
• If someone is available, ask your question in the #tablesorter IRC channel at freenode.net.
• Ask your question at Stackoverflow using a tablesorter tag.
• Please don't open a new issue unless it really is an issue with the plugin, or a feature request. Thanks!
