Version 2.0.30.1 (2012-2-20)

  • Modified the "filter" widget to disable the input window instead of setting it with display none. Now the input is disabled and a "disabled" class is applied to allow for further styling.

Version 2.0.30 (2012-2-20)

  • Fixed the total mess I just made with the addWidget init functionality... I need a vacation :P

Version 2.0.29 (2012-2-20)

  • Fixed a problem with the addWidget init function which apparently was always being called, even if you didn't want it! Fix for issue #28. Thanks to thezoggy for helping with troubleshooting!
  • Minor cleanup of sorting class names code.

Version 2.0.28.1 (2012-2-16)

  • Modified the plugin pager to ignore child rows. Fix for issue #27.

Version 2.0.28 (2012-2-1)

  • Added a new function to widgets called "init" which is called upon initialization, before any of the widgets are applied.

    • I added it to allow the "saveSort" widget to get the saved sort data (localStorage or cookie) before the initial sort was applied.

    • The "saveSort" widget is still compatible with the original tablesorter, but the original version will call all of the widgets twice on initialization, if using the "saveSort" widget.

    • New add widget format is as follows:

      ```javascript
$.tablesorter.addWidget({
  id: 'myWidget',
  init: function(table, allWidgets, thisWidget){
    // widget initialization code - this is only run ONCE
    // but in this example I call the format function because
    // I want to keep it backwards compatible with the original tablesorter
    thisWidget.format(table, true);
  },
  format: function(table, initFlag) {
    // widget code to apply to the table AFTER EACH SORT
    // the initFlag is true when format is called for the first time, but
    // only if it is called from the init function
  }
});
```

Version 2.0.27 (2012-1-31)

  • Added sortReset option
    • Setting this option to true, allows you to click on the header a third time to clear the sort
    • Clearing the sort DOES NOT return the table to it's initial unsorted state.
  • Added saveSort widget
    • This widget will save the last sort to local storage, and will fallback to cookies.
    • The widget does use the JSON.stringify function which is not fully supported (IE7), so if you plan to support it and use this widget, please include this JSON library.
  • Fixed pager page size not sticking. Fix for issue #24.
