Sort tables

[mechanix]

Hi,

We use in our posts a lot of tables and one of the requirements are to make this tables sortable. Markdown generates only <table></table> output. Is there a way to add a class to the html table output?

html in the forums is generated by markdown-it the line responsible for creating the <table> is here, in theory you should be able to give it an attribute with smth. like this

  token = state.push('table_open', 'table', 1);
  token.map = tableLines = [ startLine, 0 ];
  token.attrs = [ "class", "sortable" ];

Thank you for your reply. I'll take a look and will report.

Unfortunately it doesn't work. The html code is displayed without the class.

My mistake. I found a typo. The table html code looks like this now:
<table c="l" s="o">

This is how it works:

token     = state.push('table_open', 'table class="sortable"', 1);
 token.map = tableLines = [ startLine, 0 ];

Thank you!
