Sortable table for use on webpages

[Elgin Clock]

Can anyone point me in the direction of a better sortable table that I can use on a webpage?

I found this one: http://javascriptkit.com/script/script2/sorttable.shtml

While it works for regular text as shown on our website here: http://www.team237.com/members.htm

I would like to use it on my own site but incorporate links in the table, and also images, and sort by the link url, or image name I don't see why this should not work. My thinking is that it should recognize the

The problem I found is that this Java Script based table ignores the sorting of the standard html formatting tags such as:

 <td><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098987/" target="_blank"><center>Link</center></a></td>

While it sorts the word "Link" and actually does center it by using the <center> commands, it does not sort the link itself as you click on the top header to sort the columns.. It basically leaves the link in the same place within the table, but moves the word "Link" to Alphabetical order.

This is really irritating.

By the way, the table sort js code depends on an external .js file that came with the table's examples which you have to place in the same root directory as your html file that is using the code.
edit: I'm not to familiar with Javascript, but could my problem be that this external .js file is not defining the html image tags as something to sort??
Just a thought..


Is there any other way to code a sortable table that will recognize the html center and image tags as something to organize as well??
edit: What is used to sort the info on this page?

Php?? Can that be used with images and links?

This will also be helpful to know for the teams site to link pics to the people's individual names in the future.
