Table Sorter to sort when i have more rows in thead

Question

Hi, I have a table with more than 2 rows in and i wnt to perform sorting only on 2nd row elements, how can this be achieved using table sorter?Please help me out.

Answer 1

I have a similar situation, but I only use the first row for tablesorter. The second row is used for selection filters, so I always want it to stay at row 2. Putting both rows in but making the second row cells instead of <th> cells does the trick.

<table id="table" class="tablesorter">
   <thead>
      <tr>
         <th title="Click to sort by ID ">ID</th>
         <th title="Click to sort by Name ">Name</th>
         <th title="Click to sort by Description ">Description</th>
      </tr>
      <tr>
         <td><input type="text" name="org_id"/></td>
         <td><input type="text" name="name"/></td>
         <td><input type="text" name="business_desc"/></td>
      </tr>
   </thead>
   <tbody>
      <tr>
         <td>Org 1</td>
         <td>Org Name</td>
         <td>Org Desc</td>
      </tr>
   </tbody>
