this may be what you guys are looking for? dunno, haven't tested it much...
I'm sure there's a better way of doing this... but it seems to work. just
add a "multisort" class to every table you want linked.
var $multisort = $("table.multisort");
$multisort.addClass( "msUnsorted" );
$multisort.bind( "sortStart", function(){
$(this).removeClass( "msUnsorted" );
});
$multisort.filter( ".msUnsorted" ).bind( "sortEnd", function(){
var sortOrder = [ this.config.sortList ]; // get sort order
$multisort.filter( ".msUnsorted" ).removeClass( "msUnsorted" ).trigger(
"sorton", sortOrder );
setTimeout( function(){ $multisort.addClass( "msUnsorted" ); }, 0 ); //
avoid retriggering
});
