I've got a puzzle question. I've got a load of news_items that I find and sort by date in my controller and then display in the view. Works just fine. I do this in the index action.
It appears as tabular information, with column headings. As I say by default I'm sorting by date. What I'd like to do is after the list is rendered in the view, I'd like to offer the user the ability to click on a different column heading to sort by that column. e.g. allow the user to sort by news_item.stock.sector What I think I need is a link_to helper at the top for each column heading to pass something back to the index action of the controller so that I can repopulate the @news_items with a newly sorted list (as the user clicks different column headings). Am I on the right lines? Can anyone help me do this?
