See [this stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14267781/sorting-html-table-with-javascript) If the table doesn't have a `tbody`: ```js const getCellValue = (tr, idx) => tr.children[idx].innerText || tr.children[idx].textContent; const comparer = (idx, asc) => (a, b) => ((v1, v2) => v1 !== '' && v2 !== '' && !isNaN(v1) && !isNaN(v2) ? v1 - v2 : v1.toString().localeCompare(v2) )(getCellValue(asc ? a : b, idx), getCellValue(asc ? b : a, idx)); // do the work... document.querySelectorAll('th').forEach(th => th.addEventListener('click', (() => { const table = th.closest('table'); Array.from(table.querySelectorAll('tr:nth-child(n+2)')) .sort(comparer(Array.from(th.parentNode.children).indexOf(th), this.asc = !this.asc)) .forEach(tr => table.appendChild(tr) ); }))); ``` If the table has a `tbody`: ```js const getCellValue = (tr, idx) => tr.children[idx].innerText || tr.children[idx].textContent; const comparer = (idx, asc) => (a, b) => ((v1, v2) => v1 !== '' && v2 !== '' && !isNaN(v1) && !isNaN(v2) ? v1 - v2 : v1.toString().localeCompare(v2) )(getCellValue(asc ? a : b, idx), getCellValue(asc ? b : a, idx)); document.querySelectorAll('th').forEach(th => th.addEventListener('click', (() => { const table = th.closest('table'); const tbody = table.querySelector('tbody'); Array.from(tbody.querySelectorAll('tr')) .sort(comparer(Array.from(th.parentNode.children).indexOf(th), this.asc = !this.asc)) .forEach(tr => tbody.appendChild(tr) ); }))) ```
