Easy sortable tables in TiddlyWiki.

The TableSortingPlugin allows you to sort the rows of a table by the data in any column, simply by clicking on the header for that column.

TableSortingPluginFor example, if you have a table listing the plugins installed in a TiddlyWiki, you can sort the table by author or plugin-size. Another example is a table that lists your movie collection — where you could sort the table by rating or genre — depending on what you are looking for.

Unlike existing solutions for sorting tables, the TableSortingPlugin is light-weight, easy to use, and future-proof. It also offers the ability to avoid sorting by specific columns, or to sort a table by default.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome as always.
