Handling Tables by Column

Question

I'm searching for a way to swap table columns around
By some parameters (We are talking about jQuery or what not)
And sort of a more general question: is there some kind of
good JS library to handle tables by columns?

Answer 1

The jQuery Flexigrid plugin works great for sortable columns and lots of other things. Flexigrid Website

I use this all the time with single-page ASP.NET / WCF applications. When I use ASP.NET MVC, I use jQuery Datatables althought I am not 100% sure it allows for the column re-ordering like you want.
