NOTE!
- This functionality is new as of version 2.0.10 (not part of the original plugin).
- When a column is sorted numerically (
sorter:"digit") any text in that column will, by default, be given a zero value. Sort the last column (#9) to see the problem with this method. - Overall
stringTooption added in version 2.1.16. - String options changed in version 2.1.16; setting the value to:
"max"will treat any text in that column as a value greater than the max (more positive) value. Renamed from "max+"."min"will treat any text in that column as a value greater than the min (more negative) value. Renamed from "max-"."top"will always sort the text to the top of the column."bottom"will always sort the text to the bottom of the column."none"or"zero"will treat the text as if it has a value of zero.
- Individual columns can be modified by adding the following (they all do the same thing), set in order of priority:
- jQuery data
data-string="top". - metadata
class="{ string: 'top'}". This requires the metadata plugin. - headers option
headers : { 0 : { string : 'top' } }. - header class name
class="string-top". - Overall
stringTooption.
- jQuery data
- Sort columns three through eight to see how the sort has changed. Note that the text is sorted separately from the numeric values.
- The
emptyTooption defaults to bottom, so all empty cells will sort at the bottom of the table, except for the second column.
