This patch introduces a DataTables sorting plugin, title-numeric,
for sorting cells based on a decimal number embedded in a span title
attribute. This allows currency amounts to be formatted properly
for display without having to writing a sorting plugin that's
super-smart about removing the formatting, particularly for locales
that use a comma as the decimal mark.
The sorter plugin can be used like this:
- In the DataTables config:
"aoColumns": [
{ "sType": "title-numeric" },
]
- In the table data
<td><span title="[% decimal_number_that_JS_parseFloat_accepts %]">
[% formatted currency %]
</span></td>
To test:
[1] Ensure that there is at least one active budget and at least
one inactive one.
[2] Go to the acquisitions home page. Note that changing the sort order
on the amount, ordered, spent, or avail columns results in incorrect
sorting that is either ASCII-betical or which ignores any component
of large numbers that occur after the thousands separator.
[3] Apply the patch.
[4] Verify that the sorting now works correctly and that no JavaScript
errors appear in the JS debug console of your choice.
