I mainly do LAMP programming, and as such don't have much experience with JavaScript.
I'm looking for a simple function that will allow the user to reorder search data gotten from a database and displayed in a table.
Meaning, the user clicks on one of the column headers, and js automatically resorts the results. I've seen some stuff online, but none of it seems to really work.
Can anyone point me to something in the right direction?
I have a table I am populating with data from a DB, and have it
sortable on the client side. When the table exceeds around 300 rows,
I start running into problems with rendering and sorting it. I
started out using Prototype to help with the sorting, but it appears
that this results in a lot of calls to _getElementsByXPath, which are
taking up a large percentage of the rendering time. I believe this
call is occurring as the DOM is being parsed.
What is the general/most accepted manner of dealing with large data
sets (I am expecting some to grow into the thousands) in a table so
that it can be sorted client side? I am thinking of building a
javascript (JSON) object containing the data, and sorting based on
this. Anybody have any thoughts on this approach, or any suggestions
for other ways to approach this?
I have this source code (I get "data" via AJAX / JSON and it has the properties person.id and person.lastname).

I searched for sorting them in an alpabetical order. I saw solutions, fetching the whole data, but I am rendering the HTML ul list, so perhaps there are better ways to sort it? Or is it necessary, first to push all the li's to the ul? Isn't there a jQuery basic function for it?
I need to be able to create a 2 column table and then based on which column
header is clicked on, sort the list by that column so that each table row is
sorted properly. If possible there might be more than one line in the row
and I would only want to sort on the first line in a given row. Can this be
done using JavaScript. If so, which entities do I need (A table? A form?)
share some best jQuery plugin for table sorting?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have to sort a table where few columns are dynamically generated .I searched the net and came out with sorttable.js included in my jsp file . then called this function in <body>onload event as initTables('id_of the table"); It was working out for me..I have some columns which introduce the concept of hidden columns so when I try to hide it instead of hiding it just sorts..Is there a way to not to sort the first row alone becoz my first row is the total amount. I do have expand and collapse columns in my table I am not able to sort the parent row get sorted along with the child rows. I want the parent row to be static and only the child rows getting sorted ..
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm building an online auction system. Each participant will be allowed to post one bid per minute for about 3 hours. Each person's "bid history" must remain visible to him during the entire auction in a scrollable list, and this list must be sorted from high to low bid. These auctions will have upwards of 10,000 bidders and the server will be seriously stressed in dealing with so many bidders posting another new bid every minute. Therefore I want to alleviate any additional stress on the server by storing and sorting each bidder's "bid history" in his own browser -- perhaps in a cookie or maybe there is a better javascript-based data storage container available for this purpose ... ?
This seems like a natural application for javascript because of the fact that only the individual bidder needs to see his own list of submitted bids -- sorted from high to low -- and I'm hoping that javascript can be employed to do this.
1- A bidder enters his bid into a form (example 12345.67) and posts the form to the server;
2- Javascript grabs the posted value and appends it to the cookie or whatever container is storing the bids in the browser;
3- Javascript re-sorts the values and displays them again, perhaps in an iFrame or maybe in another kind of scrolling list on the main page.
Note that these bids will NOT be placed in ascending or descending order (this auction is different from most) and this means the values must be re-sorted each time a new value is posted -- so they always appear sorted from high to low in the list.
i am using two tables. one for the header, one for the body content. has anyone done table sorting in this situation?

I'm working on a project that requires an HTML table, in which the rows can be sorted (ascending and descending) based on the values of a particular column. In other words, regular sorting.I've tried a couple jquery plugins and they work just fine, however, the table that I'm working with is somewhat different to a regular table, because it will display 2 values (prices) in the same column for each row.
I would like to write my own java script function or plugin to accomplish what I need, but before I write any code, I just wanted to get some advice as to the things I need to take into consideration.For example (and please forgive my thought process in case is flawed):n order to sort the rows of the table, based on the values of a particular column I would have to do the following:Capture the values of the column I want to sort by and sort themThen, capture the values of each row and link them to each cell on the column that is being sorted
I'm using this sort-table that relies on MooTools.I have one column that contains image icons. I'd like to sort them (perhaps by the "id" attribute), but I'm new to Javascript and don't understand what I'm seeing in the js files enough to customize it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI don't know how get a data of a row and passing the result to a textbox located in my form. For example:
textbox.Text=(result);
I use this jquery plug-in [URL].
I would like it very much if there was an option to have sorting disabled when there is only a single row in the table.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a div container that is used to specify where the table I retrieve via ajax is placed $("#div_reveal").html(AjaxResponse). I have tried to add an onSuccess function to update the table function (){ $("table").trigger("update"); } but the table does not sort. When I copy the output table directly into the page (static) it sorts. Therefore, I am assuming that the new table is not being added to the Dom and and is not being "recognized" by tablesorter. Does anyone know of a solution to retrieve and display a full html table via ajax and get tablesorter to sort it.
View 1 Replies View Relatedfound a script here that allows for sortable tables in HTML, and for the most part, it works great. But with my date field, it either sorts alphabetically (Aug->Sept), or, if I change Names to Numbers (Jan=1, Feb=2, etc) the sort order becomes 1, 10, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (I only have Jan-Oct dates). I think I have to tell my script to interpret my numbered dates as text, but like I said I'm new to JS and wouldn't know where to begin. Javascript [URL]

I have a list like this...
Thing 1
Thing 2
Thing 3
(expand)
When you click on expand, it becomes.
Thing 1
Thing 2
Thing 3
Thing 4
Thing 5
Thing 6
Thing 7
(shrink)
Now, user X clicks on Thing 6. He didn't want 6, but 7. So he clicks the evil back button. Now the list is truncated again and the user gets annoyed wishing that the list was expanded where he left off. What's the best way to let javascript remember to keep the list expanded after the back button is pressed? I have the same issue for table sorting. I use the Jquery tablesorter pluggin and the sorting is forgotten after the back button is pressed.
We are using jQuery JavaScript Library v1.3.1 for paging and sorting purposes. This library is working fine when we are loading smaller
data sets (<1000 records) on the page. However, when data set starts getting large (>3000 records), the initial page gives a script loading
error and the page does not load at all.
I am looking for a single jquery plugin that can sort the table and also freeze the column headers and works in IE, FF and Chrome. I have found tablesorter plug-in that works great for sorting and fxHeader that works great for freezing column headers, but when I use both of them together there are issues. My table structure is something like this.

Each "row"has a row beneath it with a "menu" part to edit / view the record etc. using css the menu is set to display:none. when a user clicks the record jquery does a .show() on the menu row is it posible to sort the columns preserving the record row and menu row (maybe grouping them with a class or something) the sort to not read the menu row. and if you click on ID / Client / Cm on any of the "sections" (Display / Classifieds) it sorts that colum for the whole table... so say i click on cm under classifieds it also orders the colum acordingly for display i checked out tablesorter but its not quite working...table structure demo [url]

I am trying to develop a function where the user rolls over the days ( all inside their own <td> ) inside a table of a single month calendar. And when he clicks on a day, it get its color permanently changed until he choses another day for focus. I tried onMouseOver, onClick and onMouseOut, but I just cannot find a way for it to lose focus on the day last clicked when I click anew.
