====== DataTables Sorting ====== There are two options that control the sorting, and they are ''bsort'' and ''order''. Note that the index of columns of the DataTables is start with 0. I.e. The index of the first column is 0. ===== No Sorting ===== Adding ''bSort: false'' in option. Example: var table = $("#table").DataTable({ dom: 'rti', pageLength: -1, bSort: false }); ===== Sorting According to the First Column, in Ascending Order ===== Adding ''%%order: [[0, "asc"]]%%'' in option. Example: var table = $("#table").DataTable({ dom: 'rti', pageLength: -1, order: [[0, "asc"]] }); ===== Sorting According to the First Column, in Descending Order ===== Adding ''%%order: [[0, "desc"]]%%'' in option. Example: var table = $("#table").DataTable({ dom: 'rti', pageLength: -1, order: [[0, "desc"]] }); ===== Sorting for Multiple Columns ===== ''order'' option actually accepts an array of input. If we want to sort the first column in descending order, and second column in ascending order, we can use ''%%order: [[0, "desc"], [1, "asc"]]%%'' in option. Example: var table = $("#table").DataTable({ dom: 'rti', pageLength: -1, order: [[0, "desc"], [1, "asc"]] });
