Multiple values in a cell and specify which value to use for sorting #5

Hi,

If I have a table with multiple values in a cell can I specify which value (i.e. hidden input) to use for sorting?

Hi,

Sorting is per column. What kind of sort are you looking for exactly? Can you give an example?

@bebraw Thanks for responding.

Please check out this image. The cell has 2 values: one is an original value and the other is a variation compared to control group. The current implementation is done using jQuery dataTable and I am searching for an alternative since it is not compatible with React. The way I did with dataTables is adding a number using input tag as hidden and set sorting to be done with the input tag in the cell, not just any number.

Check sortabular carefully. Maybe one of those would work. Especially multi-column sort was designed for more complex cases.

I'm not sure if I got the variation idea right but it should be possible to tweak the behavior to match your requirements.
