tablesorter 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.

View the [complete listing here](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/wiki/Change).
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4.7 (11/14/2012)
|
|
|
|
* Added `sortReset` method.
|
|
* This event can be triggered on the table and it will reset all sorts.
|
|
* Added a [demo](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/example-method-sortreset.html).
|
|
* Fullfills enhancement request from [issue #](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/163).
|
|
* Added a live LESS theme demo at [codepen.io](http://codepen.io/Mottie/pen/eqBbn).
|
|
* Fixed QtWebkit browsers (includes Safari & Arora) error when running jQuery v1.8+:
|
|
* The problem was with a selector which worked without any problems until jQuery v1.8+.
|
|
* Fixes [issue #132](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/132) & [#174](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/174).
|
|
* Fixed sticky header issues
|
|
* Sticky header bug when the sticky header contained a `sticky-false` row - see [issue #172](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/172).
|
|
* Javascript error fixed in IE8 - see [issue #](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/170).
|
|
* Sticky header breaking when first rows hidden - see [issue #168](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/168).
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4.6 (10/25/2012)
|
|
|
|
* Filter widget select dropdowns will now trim extra spaces before adding them as an option. Fixes [issue #161](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/161).
|
|
* Fixed pager addon page size selector. There is an order of priority:
|
|
* If an option has `selected="selected"` as an attribute, it will override the pager `size` option.
|
|
* Pager `size` option is no longer ignored even if no option in the page size select is selected.
|
|
* Fixes an problem brought up in [issue #122](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/122#issuecomment-9791538).
|
|
* The pager plugin will now update when an `updateComplete` or `filterEnd` event is triggered on the table.
|
|
* Added to make the pager plugin work with this [quicksearch](https://github.com/riklomas/quicksearch) plugin.
|
|
* To make them work together, filtered rows need to get a class name of `filtered` before triggering the updateComplete event.
|
|
* See [issue #160](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/160) for more details.
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4.5 (10/17/2012)
|
|
|
|
* The filter widget no longer builds the filter row when all columns have `filter-false` set. Fixes [issue #156](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/156).
|
|
* Pager plugin updates:
|
|
* Added an optional ajax url parameter to include the current sort per column
|
|
* Add the `{sortList:col}` parameter, where `col` is the actual parameter added to the URL.
|
|
* So this parameter `{sortList:sort}` with a sortList value of `[[2,0],[3,0]]` becomes `&sort[2]=0&sort[3]=0` in the URL.
|
|
* Thanks to [trevorbernard](https://github.com/trevorbernard) for the enhancement request from [issue #155](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/155).
|
|
* Fixed an issue with the `cssPageSize` and `cssGoto` not becoming disabled when multiple elements exist. Fixes [issue #157](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/157).
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4.4 (10/15/2012)
|
|
|
|
* Updated pager plugin:
|
|
* Added `pagerInitialized` event which is triggered after the pager has completed initialization.
|
|
* Added `pageMoved` event which may fire before the `pagerComplete` event when ajax processing is involved, or after the `pagerComplete` on normal use. See [issue #153](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/pull/153).
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4.3 (10/13/2012)
|
|
|
|
* Fixed an error with the filter widget using parsed data. Fixes [issue #149](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/149).
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4.2 (10/13/2012)
|
|
|
|
* Updated the Bootstrap theme:
|
|
* Bootstrap demo version updated to v2.1.1.
|
|
* Darkened header gradient - see [issue #142](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/142#issuecomment-9011306).
|
|
* Made some other tweaks to clean up the theme - bold header text, select box sizes (pager), etc.
|
|
* Updated LESS theme to include filter widget styling, column widget footer styling and themes.
|
|
* Updated `updateCell` method to not use jQuery's `closest()` function which is not supported by jQuery v1.2.6.
|
|
* Changed tablesorter `selectorRemove` option default to `".remove-me"` (see the pager plugin ajax change below).
|
|
* Fixed sticky headers not scrolling horizontally. Fixes [issue #](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/143).
|
|
* Fixed pager plugin Ajax:
|
|
* Ajax loaded tables will no longer hide pages other than the first. Fixes [issue #151](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/151).
|
|
* Ajax header data now properly replaces the header text.
|
|
* The error message row is now added with the class name from the `selectorRemove` option.
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4.1 (9/29/2012)
|
|
|
|
* Fixed uitheme widget:
|
|
* A second div is now wrapped around the table cell contents.
|
|
* This allows using relative & absolute positioning on the content as Firefox does not support this directly on table cells.
|
|
* Fixed support for jQuery v1.2.6
|
|
* Core modified to not use `closest()` function.
|
|
* Resizable widget modified to not use `closest()` & `isEmptyObject` functions.
|
|
|
|
#### Version 2.4 (9/27/2012)
|
|
|
|
* Core changes:
|
|
* Table bodies are now detached before processing the contents. There is a noticable speed increase when sorting large tables, especially in IE. Fix for [issue #72](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/72) and possibly [issue #75](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/75).
|
|
* Changed `cssChildRow` option default from `expand-child` to `tablesorter-childRow` to make it more clear.
|
|
* Changed `selectorHeaders` option default from `'> thead th'` to `'> thead th, > thead td'` to include non-header cells.
|
|
* Fixed `sortAppend` being applied multiple times when sorting multiple columns. Fix for [issue #115](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/115).
|
|
* Fixed `updateCell` method to correctly target the table cell from the cache.
|
|
* Fixed something, somewhere to fix [issue #128](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/128) LOL... darn you IE!
|
|
* Updated the `widthFixed` option to set the column widths as a percentage instead of pixels to better resize the table dynamically.
|
|
* Updated the script so that data-column attributes are no longer removed from disabled columns. This fixes an issue where `filter-false` doesn't apply to disabled columns.
|
|
* Updated the `widgets` option so that the order of widgets no longer matters. The array now is sorted in reverse alphabetical order, but the zebra widget is always applied last. [See the table here](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/index.html#Widget-options).
|
|
* Updated the `$.tablesorter.isDigit()` function to ensure that no errors pop up when giving it an element of type number. Fix for [issue #121](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/pull/121).
|
|
* Updated the natural sort function to better sort numbers with leading zeros. See [this issue](https://github.com/overset/javascript-natural-sort/issues/6) for more details.
|
|
* Updated the code to always check that the `sortList` option contains numeric values. See [issue #127](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/127).
|
|
* Updated the date parser to not be so rigid. See [issue #125](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/125).
|
|
* Updated several internal functions to keep tablesorter compatible with jQuery 1.2.6. Fixs [issue #124](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/124).
|
|
* Tablesorter can no longer be initialized multiple times on the same table, unless the destroy method is called.
|
|
* Bound events now have `unbind` executed before `bind` to fix an issue with Microsoft ajax.net. See [issue #119](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/119).
|
|
|
|
* Added `cssHeaderRow` option
|
|
* This option contains the class name added to the header row.
|
|
* Previously it got the same class name as `cssHeader`.
|
|
* Default value is `"tablesorter-headerRow"`.
|
|
|
|
* Added `cssIcon` option:
|
|
* This option contains the class name added to the `<i>` element that is now automatically added to every header cell.
|
|
* To prevent the plugin from adding an `<i>` element to the headers, set this option to an empty string.
|
|
* Default value is `"tablesorter-icon"`.
|
|
|
|
* Added `theme` option & new themes!
|
|
* Default theme is now `default`.
|
|
* Note that ALL of the documentation demos now need the theme option set to `"blue"` to apply the blue theme.
|
|
* Thanks to [thezoggy](https://github.com/thezoggy), numerous themes have been added including default, ice, black-ice, dark & dropbox.
|
|
* Updated hovered row styling to include child rows in some themes (blue, green and less themes).
|
|
* See the column widget update for details on styling of the thead and tfoot cells as well.
|
|
* Removed the blue and green zipped theme files.
|
|
|
|
* Added `selectorSort` option:
|
|
* This option allows you to set which element within the table header triggers the sort.
|
|
* Previously the entire header cell would trigger a sort so any extra elements within the cell would not be clickable.
|
|
* See [issue #137](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/137).
|
|
|
|
* Added `cssProcessing` option:
|
|
* When true, an indeterminate progress icon is added to the header while tablesorter is sorting or filtering columns.
|
|
* It is disabled by default, but can be enabled by setting the `showProcessing` option to `true`.
|
|
* The icon can also be shown using the API: `$.tablesorter.isProcessing(table, toggle, $ths);`
|
|
* The `table` parameter is the table to target.
|
|
* `toggle` is a boolean which when `true` will add the `cssProcessing` option class name to the header.
|
|
* The last parameter `$ths` is optional. When set it will target specific header cells. If undefined, only the sorted headers will be targetted.
|
|
* Note that for small tables, this processing icon may quickly flash and may be distracting. In larger tables, it will be more visible, but may not animate. I believe this is because of all the javascript processing going on (single threaded) prevents the animation from occurring - I'll try to find a better solution.
|
|
|
|
* Parsers:
|
|
* All parsers now have publically available methods.
|
|
* Access the parsers using `$.tablesorter.parsers`.
|
|
* Get the desired parser code using `parser = $.tablesorter.getParserById("parser_name")`.
|
|
|
|
* Widgets:
|
|
* All widgets now have publically available methods:
|
|
* Access the widgets using `$.tablesorter.widgets`.
|
|
* Get the desired widget code using `$.tablesorter.getWidgetById("widget_name")`.
|
|
* Apply all selected widgets from the `widgets` option directly using `$.tablesroter.applyWidget(table, initialize);`, where `initialize` is a boolean indicating to run the widget's `init` function versus the `format` function. This is the same as triggering [applyWidgets](file:///C:/Repos/tablesorter/docs/index.html#applywidgets) on the table.
|
|
* All widgets now have a `remove` function which when called will remove the widget from the table, see the [writing custom widgets](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/example-widgets.html) demo page for an example.
|
|
* Updated the `destroy` method to call all widget's remove function, if it exists.
|
|
* Added a method to refresh widgets:
|
|
* Trigger this method using `$('table').trigger('refreshWidgets', [doAll, dontapply]);`, or call it directly using `$.tablesorter.refreshWidgets(table, doAll, dontapply)`
|
|
* If `doAll` is `true` it removes all widgets from the table. If `false` only non-current widgets (from the `widgets` option) are removed.
|
|
* When done removing widgets, the widget re-initializes the currently selected widgets, unless the `dontapply` parameter is `true` leaving the table widget-less.
|
|
* Note that if the `widgets` option has any named widgets, they will be re-applied to the table when it gets resorted. So if you want to completely remove all widgets from the table, also clear out the widgets option `$('table')[0].config.widgets = [];`
|
|
* Enhancement request from [issue #112](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/112).
|
|
* Added a [jQuery compatibility table](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/#Widget-options) to the WidgetOptions section to show the limitations of each widget. See [issue #124](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/124).
|
|
|
|
* Columns widget updates:
|
|
* The column class names from the `widgetOptions.columns` option can now be applied to the header row (including the sticky header) and footer row.
|
|
* Added a new option named `columns_thead` which is `true` by default. Set it to `false` to not add the columns class name to the header.
|
|
* Added a new option named `columns_tfoot` which is `true` by default. Set it to `false` to not add the columns class name to the footer.
|
|
* In addition to the column class name, the tfoot also gets the class name for an ascending or desending sort obtained from the `cssAsc` and `cssDesc` option.
|
|
* Added a remove function method.
|
|
|
|
* Filter widget changes:
|
|
* Added the ability to enter operators into the filter. Added `< <= >= > ! =`.
|
|
* To find values greater than 10, enter `>10`.
|
|
* To find letters less than M, enter `<m`, but to find letters greater than M, enter `>=n`, because `>m` will include `ma` because `ma > m`.
|
|
* To find people that aren't George, enter `!George` or to only look for males, enter `!female`. This doesn't work in the quick search filter because
|
|
* Exact matches can be done using quotes, as before, or by using an equal sign `=`, e.g. find the exact number 10 by using `10=`.
|
|
* **Note #1** In currency, percent or other numerical columns with numbers, the operators will ignore these extra symbols when parsing the value. So to find values greater than 10%, ignore the percent sign and use `> 10`.
|
|
* **Note #2** when using any of the above operators, the child row content is ignored even if `filter_childRows` is set to `true`.
|
|
|
|
* Added `filter_columnFilters` option which when `true` will add a filter to each column. If `false`, no filter row is added.
|
|
* Added `filter_hideFilters` option which when `true` will hide the filter row initially. The rows is revealed by hovering over the filter row or giving any filter input/select focus.
|
|
* Added `filter_reset` option which will contain a jQuery selector pointing to a reset element (button or link).
|
|
|
|
* Added `filter_useParsedData` option
|
|
* When `true`, ALL filter searches will only use parsed data.
|
|
* To only use parsed data in specific columns, set this option to `false` and use any of the following methods (they all do the same thing), in order of priority:
|
|
* jQuery data `data-filter="parsed"`.
|
|
* metadata `class="{ filter: 'parsed'}"`. This requires the metadata plugin.
|
|
* headers option `headers : { 0 : { filter : 'parsed' } }`.
|
|
* header class name `class="filter-parsed"`.
|
|
* Remember that parsed data most likely doesn't match the actual table cell text, `20%` becomes `20` and `Jan 1, 2013 12:01 AM` becomes `1357020060000`.
|
|
* Enhancement request from [issue #96](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/96).
|
|
|
|
* Added a method to apply a filter to the table when `filter_columnFilters` is `false` by triggering a search on the table.
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// search using an array - the index of the array matches the column index
|
|
// [ column0, column1, column2, ..., columnN ]
|
|
var columns = []; // undefined array elements are treated as an empty search ''
|
|
columns[4] = '2?%'; // is equivalent to defining the array this way [ '', '', '', '2?%' ]
|
|
$('table').trigger('search', [columns]);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Added "filterInit" triggered event on the table after the filter widget has finished initializing.
|
|
* Added "filterStart" triggered event on the table. Enhancement request from [issue #108](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/108).
|
|
* Added "filterEnd" triggered event on the table. This is used by the updated pager plugin to allow it to work with the filter widget. Enhancement request from [issue #108](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/108).
|
|
|
|
* Modified filter select dropowns (still added by using `filter-select` or setting a `filter_functions` column to `true`):
|
|
* By default the select will filter exact matches. To only match column content, add a "filter-match" class to the column. Fixes [issue #102](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/102).
|
|
* The contents of the select are now alphanumerically sorted. Fixes [issue #103](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/103).
|
|
|
|
* The filter widget should properly target columns when multiple header rows with column and row spans are included. Fixes [issue #113](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/113).
|
|
* Added a remove function method.
|
|
|
|
* Resizable widget update
|
|
* Added an option `resize` to `widgetOptions`
|
|
* When `false` the resized columns widths will not save to storage (localStorage/cookie).
|
|
* Default is `true` which saves resized column widths.
|
|
* Modified the resize method to smooth out the resizing.
|
|
* Right clicking (opening the context menu) on the header will now reset the resizing of the columns. If you right-click on the header with no resized columns, the context menu will open as it normally does.
|
|
* Added a remove function method.
|
|
|
|
* saveSort widget update
|
|
* Added an option `saveSort` to `widgetOptions`
|
|
* When `false` the saved sort in storage (localStorage/cookie) will still apply to the table upon initialization, but any new sorts will not save.
|
|
* Default is `true` which loads the saved sort on initialization and saves, and overwrites, any new sorts of the table.
|
|
* Added a remove function method which only clears the saved sort.
|
|
|
|
* Sticky Headers Widget update
|
|
* This widget now clones the entire thead for stickyfying ( yes, I know that isn't a real word :P ). This is a similar method used by [jmosbech](https://github.com/jmosbech) in his [StickyTableHeaders plugin](https://github.com/jmosbech/StickyTableHeaders).
|
|
* Header rows containing column and row spans should now correctly align.
|
|
* Attempted to correct the border spacing issue in non-webkit browsers. It's not perfect, so this may be tweaked in the future to make it pixel perfect, if that is ever possible.
|
|
* Added a remove function method.
|
|
|
|
* UITheme widget updated to be more generalized:
|
|
* This widget will now apply a jQuery UI or Bootstrap theme. It was designed to me extendable to other platforms.
|
|
* Added a [Bootstrap](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/example-widget-bootstrap-theme.html) theme demo. This demo also includes the filter widget with the pager plugin to show their interaction and other styling possibilities.
|
|
* To extend the uitheme widget to other platforms, add/extend the theme in the `$.tablesorter.themes` variable contained in the jquery.tablesorter.widgets.js file.
|
|
* To add either a jQuery UI or Bootstrap theme to the table, set it up as follows (also see the [jQuery UI](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/example-widget-ui-theme.html) or [Bootstrap](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/example-widget-bootstrap-theme.html) demo):
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
$("table").tablesorter({
|
|
// widget code now contained in the jquery.tablesorter.widgets.js file
|
|
widgets : [ 'uitheme', 'zebra' ],
|
|
widgetOptions : {
|
|
// set the uitheme widget to use the jQuery UI theme class names ## NEW ##
|
|
uitheme : 'jui' // or 'bootstrap'
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* The `widgets` option must include the `uitheme` widget.
|
|
* The `widgetOptions` for `uitheme` now only contains the name of the platform to use (previously it was the 3 icon class names to use). For now, use either `jui` for jQuery UI or `bootstrap` for a Twitter Bootstrap theme.
|
|
* I am working on changing tablesorter's core to do all of this automatically, so if it works out it will be available in tablesorter version 3 and this widget will be obsolete.
|
|
* Bootstrap theme enhancement requested in [issue #104](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/104).
|
|
* Added a remove function method.
|
|
|
|
* Zebra widget updates:
|
|
* It will no longer apply to nested tables. Fix for [issue #98](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/98) and also fixed by [styson](https://github.com/styson) in [issue #116](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/pull/116). Thanks!
|
|
* The zebra widget is needed if using the bootstrap striped theme. See the [Bootstrap](http://mottie.github.com/tablesorter/docs/example-widget-bootstrap-theme.html) demo for an example. Fixes [issue #111](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/111).
|
|
* The tbody is no longer hidden (or removed) when applying row class names. It appears to not change the speed significantly. But please feel free to report any speed issues.
|
|
* Added a remove function method.
|
|
|
|
* Pager addon changes:
|
|
* The pager plugin now plays nice with the filter widget.
|
|
|
|
Fixes [issue #6](https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/6).
|
|
* Added `cssGoto` option which contains a jQuery selector pointing to a page select dropdown. Updated the pager demo with an example.
