HtmlTable's sort functionality allows for secondary sorting, but it doesn't do this by default. If you look at the docs, the sort method takes a second argument that allows you to "prepare" a column to be a secondary sort. Here's a shell illustrating this:
http://mootools.net/shell/463Mn/1/ Note that I sort on column 3, but the secondary sort is on the first column. The click handlers for the headers don't do this. You'll need to write some logic of your own to allow your users to enable a secondary sort. If it were me, I'd extend the class and overwrite the headClick method: http://mootools.net/shell/463Mn/2/ enjoy.
