i'm using jquery and the jquery plugin "tablesorter" (http://tablesorter.com/docs/) to sort a table.
now I have the difficult, that I have following html (an other way is impossible):
<table class="tablesorter">
<tr>
<th>ID</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Age</th>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>Bob</td>
<td>24</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>James</td>
<td>33</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td>5</td>
<td>PJ</td>
<td>28</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>Sue</td>
<td>39</td>
</tr>
</table>
In every table is one line. Now I want to sort this many tables as it is one table.
Is there any solution for this problem?
I've found an attempt here: http://jsfiddle.net/Mottie/8cg4f/31/
But there are ony two tables and the script only sort the data from one table.
Target the tables you want to pillage, drill down to the <tr>s, move them to where they need to be, climb back up to the (now empty) <table>s, throw them away. jsFiddle
$('table:not(.tablesorter)').find('tr').appendTo('.tablesorter')
.end().end().remove();
EDIT: as per comment I have simulated "spacing between <tr>s" by using padding on the <td>s jsFiddle.
If you have other requirements for the final page, just let me know what you'd like to end up with and I can help create a solution that will yield valid html which displays consistently for all your users.
Try something like this:
var $table = $(".tablesorter");
$table.nextAll("table").children().appendTo($table).end().remove();
$table.tablesorter();

I'm using a plugin called tablesorter. I'm trying to sort a table with rowspan rows. However, it does not sort all columns correctly. Here's the jsFiddle.
<table cellspacing="1" class="tablesorter">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Age</th>
<th>Country</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Peter</td>
<td>28</td>
<td rowspan="2" style="vertical-align:middle">AAA</td>
</tr>
<tr class="expand-child">
<td>John</td>
<td>33</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Clark</td>
<td>18</td>
<td>BBB</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Bruce</td>
<td>22</td>
<td>CCC</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
JS
$('table').tablesorter();
The age column does not sort properly, how do I make it so that all the columns sort properly?
The problem (visually, not technically) is that you have a marked John as a child of Peter. So, only the numbers 28, 18 and 22 are considered for sorting. 33 is never considered for sorting at all.
Changing the first two rows as follows seems to solve the problem
<tr>
<td>Peter</td>
<td>28</td>
<td>AAA</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>John</td>
<td>33</td>
</tr>
From the looks of your HTML and your sorting requirement, doesn't look like you need the rowspan or the expand-child class. Maybe you confused rowspan with having same values for 2 rows?
do you want initial sorting?
sort by age
$('table').tablesorter({sortList: [[1,0]]});
sort by first name and age
$('table').tablesorter({sortList: [[0,0], [1,0]]});
I am trying to regenerate a table with a new order, the problem i encounter is in the performance,
I Have something like this:
<table>
<tr id="row1"></tr>
<tr id="row2"></tr>
<tr id="row3"></tr>
<tr id="row4"></tr>
</table>
Obviously my table is much more complex, but what i would like is a solution with good performance for a replacing command
my target table should be something like:
<table id="mainTable">
<tr id="row3"></tr>
<tr id="row4"></tr>
<tr id="row1"></tr>
<tr id="row2"></tr>
</table>
When I redraw it the performance is bad(for more then 100 lines)
is there any way to just replace the rows between themselves without redrawing it?
Thanks
For rearranging them append them using append() or next()
$table = $('#mainTable');
$table.append($('#row1,#row2', $table));
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<table id="mainTable">
<tr id="row1">
<td>1</td>
</tr>
<tr id="row2">
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr id="row3">
<td>3</td>
</tr>
<tr id="row4">
<td>4</td>
</tr>
</table>
The basic sultion is using jquery "after" function , which move the target element after the wanted element ..
$("#row1").after("#row4");
or if you want to sort the table based on its values , you can use plugins like : table sorter
I have a table in the following form:
<table class="myTable">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>A1</td>
<td>B1</td>
<td>C1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>A2</td>
<td>B2</td>
<td>C2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>A3</td>
<td>B3</td>
<td>C3</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Now, as the table has lots of rows and columns I would like the first row (Note that the table does NOT have a <thead> row) and the first column to be fixed when scrolling.
It is possible to use external JavaScript plugins and change the .css style but I can not modify the structure of the original table. In fact, it can only be accessed via the class selector.
applying datatable on each table using id but it only triggers for one table and give error in console.
"Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'nTf' of undefined" while i need to display it on every table .
Using class cannot be applied because each table has different td's count .
for instance i have two tables with id's table1 & table2 and calling datatable as
$('#table1').DataTable();
$('#table2').DataTable();
Please advise any help would be appreciated
my first table is
<table id="table1">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>No.s</th>
<th>Title</th>
<th>project</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>test</td>
<td>test project</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<th colspan="3"></th>
</tr>
</tfoot>
</table>
My second table is
<table id="table2">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>No.s</th>
<th>Title</th>
<th>Task</th>
<th>Actions</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>test</td>
<td>test task</td>
<td>Edit</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<th colspan="4"></th>
</tr>
</tfoot>
</table>
Using class cannot be applied because each table has different td's count
There is nothing to do when we use datatable for mutiple tables it works only for the tables which have same count of td's and can be applied using the both table's same class

i just had this problem and it turned out to be one too many tds in the tfoot. Check your rows and columns for extras, unclosed tags etc.
I am using javascript DataTables to display data, and would like to modify filters by clicking on data items as well as the standard menus. For example, I have a table like this (obviously not including the javascript functions necessary to filter):
<table>
<thead>
<th>name</th>
<th>number</th>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Bob</td>
<td>5</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Sue</td>
<td>5</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Sue</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Bob</td>
<td>1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Frank</td>
<td>5</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
If the viewer clicks on 'Bob', I want the filter to be updated to only display rows containing 'Bob'.
Use ColumnFilterWidgets or ColumnFilter.
There are examples, snippets and docs in those pages. I hope it helps.
