* All of the [original document pages](http://tablesorter.com/docs/) have been included.
* Information from my blog post on [undocumented options](http://wowmotty.blogspot.com/2011/06/jquery-tablesorter-missing-docs.html) and lots of new demos have also been included.
* Change log moved from included text file into the [wiki documentation](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/wiki/Change).
* Multi-tbody sorting - see the [options](http://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/docs/index.html#options) table on the main document page.
* Parsers for sorting text, alphanumeric text, URIs, integers, currency, floats, IP addresses, dates (ISO, long and short formats) & time. [Add your own easily](http://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/docs/example-parsers.html).
* Big shout-out to [Nick Craver](https://github.com/NickCraver) for getting rid of the `eval()` function that was previously needed for multi-column sorting.
* Added padding to wrapper in demo so Chrome doesn't add a horizontal scroll bar
* Filter widget
* Fix forced search to work again (i.e. `$('table').trigger('search', false);`)
* Fix child row filtering - see [this Stackoverflow question](http://stackoverflow.com/q/20342203/145346)
* Pager
* The pager will update properly when ajax returns no rows. Fixes [issue #456](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/456)
* Filter searches will now reset pager to the first page. Fixes [issue #456](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/456)
* The pager will now properly count filtered rows when including/excluding child rows. Fixes [this Stackoverflow question](http://stackoverflow.com/q/20342203/145346).
* The table cache will once again update after an ajax call. Fixes issues [#436](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/436) & [#437](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/437).
* Refreshing widgets now only applies to previously installed widgets. Fixes [issue #442](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/442).
* Pager
* Ajax arrays now accept html instead of cell contents, e.g. `<td class="red">- 10</td>`. Thanks [@christhomas](https://github.com/christhomas); fixes [issue #434](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/pull/434).
* Add ajax counter to only allow the most recent request to process. Thanks [@christhomas](https://github.com/christhomas); fixes [issue #443](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/pull/443).
* When filtering rows, the output will now show zeros for row & page counts instead of empty strings.
* No more `fixedHeight` pager errors. Thanks [@hempel](https://github.com/hempel); fixes [issue #448](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/448).
* Filter widget
* Exact filter matches now properly override other queries. Fixes [issue #441](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/441).
* Reverse range `20 - 10` work properly, again. See [issue #441](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/441).
* Updated docs to show the filter precendence. See [footnote (2) under Notes](http://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/docs/example-widget-filter.html).
* Sticky Headers widget
* Now uses the filter widget `bindSearch` function allowing live search, delayed searching and escape to cancel on sticky header filters.
* Thanks to [@haraldkrischner](https://github.com/haraldkrischner) for his help!
* Fixes issues [#439](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/439) & [#440](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/pull/440).
* See the [demo here](http://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/docs/example-option-textsorter-semver.html).
* This demo does not use a custom parser nor widget, it requires a modified [`semver.js` for node](https://github.com/isaacs/node-semver) file to sort the column using the `textSorter` option.
* The modified `semver-mod.js` file is contained within the new "extras" folder (tablesorter/js/extras) along with the original unmodified `semver.js` file.
* Extra code is also included to highlight invalid semantic versions within the table.
* This widget uses [css3 transforms](http://caniuse.com/#search=transform) to make the table header sticky. It's a bit jumpy in Chrome, but works well in other tested browsers.
* This widget doesn't appear to work in IE10, but it should... it will not work in IE8 and older.
* See [issue #429](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/429) for more information.
* Due to problems with sorting multiple columns improperly sorting algorithms again include code to sort empty cells.
* Internal sorting again has separate ascending and descending functions; but the previous `$.tablesorter.sortNatural` (ascending only), `$.tablesorter.sortNumeric` (ascending only) and `$.tablesorter.sortText` (ascending only) functions are still available.
* Custom text & numeric sort functions, added via `textSorter` and `numberSorter` options now require you to return the sort in the correct direction.
* Custom sort functions no longer have empty cells automatically handled for you.
* Added `sortStable` option which when `true` will sort exactly equal items by placing them in their original unsorted order (or, perform a [stable sort](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_sort#Stability)).
* Removed double icon class names.
* Added `tabIndex` option
* When `true`, a tabindex is added to the headers for keyboard accessibility; this was previously always applied
* When `false`, table headers will not be included when tabbing through the page
* Setting a filter to build a select no longer causes an error. Fixes [issue #421](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/421).
* Added `filter_saveFilters` option
* When `true`, this option saves the current filters using the storage utility (local storage with cookie fallback).
* This option is set to `false` by default.
* See [issue #388](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/388).
* Allow multiple external filter inputs
* The `$.tablesorter.filter.bindSearch( $table, $external )` function now allows binding searches using the built-in functioning.
* The bind search function will unbind any previously bound `keyup` and `search` event listeners on the `$external` elements.
* External inputs must not have a `tablesorter-filter` class to distinguish them from internal filters.
* If not using the `filter_anyMatch` option, external filters can be set to target specific columns by including a `data-column` attribute.
* See the new [filter external inputs demo](http://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/docs/example-widget-filter-external-inputs.html).
* Filter reset button clicks will again trigger a `filterReset` event. Fixes [issue #423](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/423).
**Grouping widget**
* Merged in fix for grouping widget + filter widget + child row widget.
* Updated demo with multi-child column styling.
* Thanks [Xamamule](https://github.com/Xamamule) in [pull #414](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/pull/414)!
* This also fixes [issue #422](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/422).
* Renamed variables & cleanup
* Added `group_dateString` function to format the date string for `group-date` header class name.
**Zebra widget**
* Now skips removable rows added by other widgets, more specifically, it skips rows with a `remove-me` class name (set by the `selectorRemove` option).
**Docs updates**
* Added a side menu with search to the main document page.
* The main documentation page now uses Bootstrap for some styles.
* Search includes a count with clear search, previous result and next result buttons.
* Search options included to find letters or whole words only, and choose if the search is case sensitive, or not.
* The advantage of this search over the browser's built-in search (Ctrl-F) is that this search will find text within the hidden content
* Indexing of the search results may not always be in order, i.e. "10/10" may not always be the lowest result on the page due to nested elements.
* Sorry, IE7 and older users, the search works but but is really slow. And the side menu styling leaves much to be desired (using Bootstrap).
* jQuery UI theme selector updates. See [issue #407](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/407).
* Updated typos & css in various demos
* Added Utility options section for options used by parsers, storage utility and pager ajax data.
* Added removed options section.
* This applies to pager options available in the original version of tablesorter which are no longer supported.
* Renamed variables within the [pager custom control demo](http://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/beta-testing/example-pager-custom-controls.html) (still in beta)
