DataTables column sorting not working properly with ISO8601 dates
DataTables column sorting not working properly with ISO8601 dates
yet
Posts: 41Questions: 16Answers: 1
See screenshot - there is a column "Datum" which should be sorted. The internal date format is ISO8601 (see data-order, data-sort attributes in debugger tools). I wonder the dates are obviously sorted by the rendered value instead of their internal iso8601
representation?

Happy to take a look at a test case showing the issue. My guess is that you might be Ajax loading the table? In which case use
columns.renderto tell DataTables about the orthogonal data.Allan
No, the data is directly rendered into a table.
The custom render for the ISO8601 format is only called with type=filter and type=display.
I'm afraid there isn't much help I can offer without being able to debug it. Perhaps the debugger will give me the information needed, but I'm not certain.
