MediaWiki Sortable Tables
It says in M:Help:Sorting that MediaWiki version 1.9.x now has native support for sortable tables. But actually the method they're using is fully a client-side JavaScript solution developed here by Joost de Valk. So by adding the source code to your MediaWiki:Common.js article (and enabling it by setting $wgUseSiteJs to true in your LocalSettings.php file) any wiki can do it. This will compliment the new display filter and upload CSV extensions perfectly. The following example also demonstrates another useful feature which is the alternate striped background colours making the table much easier to read, these stripes are maintained regardless of the sorting order of the table.
| City | January (Low) | January (High) | July (Low) | July (High) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Amman | 4°C | 12°C | 18°C | 32°C |
| Baghdad | 0°C | 16°C | 24°C | 43°C |
| Cairo | 8°C | 18°C | 21°C | 36°C |
| Damascus | 0°C | 12°C | 16°C | 36°C |
| Dubai | 15°C | 23°C | 30°C | 39°C |
| Jerusalem | 5°C | 13°C | 17°C | 31°C |
| Riyadh | 8°C | 21°C | 26°C | 42°C |
| Tehran | -3°C | 7°C | 22°C | 37°C |
- See M:Help:Sorting for details about syntax and usage
- Get the JavaScript code from www.joostdevalk.nl/code/sortable-table
- Seems to have some problems determining sort method based on content, this change helped.
