434 PointsJQuery Table Module
Is there a module that teaches me how to apply JQuery to my HTML5 Table? I want to learn how to apply Javascript to sort my tables. Thank you.

In the end it comes down to referencing the tablesorter.js script file in your HTML and then adding the correct classes to your table elements.

8,146 PointsThere is a really cool jQuery table sorter out there called...you guessed it, tablesorter. That will let you apply sorting to HTML tables.

Is this the course I should take:
