JavaScript Table Sorting accented characters with sorttable

Question

I'm trying to make a sortable HTML table with Sorttable Which's code is here

And it works just fine but I have some words with accented first characters (especially Á) in the <td> s and it just throws them after the Z.

I tried some ideas but I'm a beginner at Javascript and I couldn't make it work.

So please help me: How can I make some changes in the code to sort the accented characters correctly?

Answer 1

You need to use the sortLocaleCompare property to true :

$("#myTable").tablesorter({
    sortLocaleCompare : true
});

Answer 2

Maybe this could help? jQuery Plugin: Tablesorter

You may have to modify it slightly if the special character you are using is not supported but it should at least get you started.
