NOTE!
- In tablesorter version 2.0.5 and older, only the metadata and headers options methods were available to set the parsers.
- In versions 2.0.11+, parsers could be set using class names.
- Currently (versions 2.3+), parsers can be set using any of the following methods, in order of priority:
- jQuery data
data-sorter="text"(see the Javascript block below on how to set it directly). - metadata
class="{ sorter: "text" }". This requires the metadata plugin. - headers option
headers : { 0 : { sorter: "text" } }. - header class name
class="sorter-text".
- jQuery data
