Sortable wiki tables

This JSPWiki Style allows you to make tables Sortable by enclosing them inside a %~%Sortable block.
Just click the column header and your table is sorted without round-trip to the server.

Usage

Enclose your tables in %~%Sortable tags.
Make sure your table starts with a row of all header cells ( wikisyntax: ~|~| ).
Now move your the mouse over one of the clickable header cells.
You’ll see a tool-tip and a changed mouse pointer.
Click the column header to sort, clicking again will reverse the sort order.
The sort algorithm will auto-guess the data type of your column — date, numeric or string —
and adjust the sorting algorithm accordingly.
