Hello all,
I am having a dilemma regarding two jQuery plugins: the tableSorter and
tab.
Here is a brief summary of the problem:
1. I have a task list, which is further broken into sub-categories such
as "Problems", "Maintenance" and "Requests".
2. I am using the jQuery tab plugin to make each sub-category a tab.
This works well.
3. Then for each tab, I am also implementing the tableSorter plugin so
that users can click on table headers and sort either ascending or
descending on that column.
4. The tableSorter plugin only works for the first tab. I've tried
switching the tabs around and discovered that regardless which one is made
the first tab, it only works for it.
5. I've got the tableSorter plugin in multiple places throughout my
application without tabs so I know it definitely works.
I **think** the cause of the problem is: the task lists are done through a
custom tag which gets called for each tab to conjure up the list. So even
though the tableSorter plugin gets called 3 times, they all have the same
table ID which makes jQuery think they are one big happy table family!
I do not want to not use custom tag for my task lists because that would
lead to gross duplication of code... but I am also a jQuery newbie... I
understand in theory that I'd have to pass in a new table ID to the jQuery
tableSorter plugin each time it is called... but I am a little hazy on the
syntax of how that can be done.
I am sure someone on this list has done that before. If so, I would be most
grateful for any suggestions! [?]
Cheers,
Qing Xia
