I'm a totally fresh JS guy so please be understandable. In my app I want to give the user ability to filter data in my table when he/she clicks on the header (sorting on click).
What I have is a JS file which sorts everything as except for one column - full_name
, it seems like it's sorting case sensitive:
Which I thought I was handling by innerHTML.toUpperCase
, am I wrong?
Snippet with sample html table below:
function sortTable(n) {
var table, rows, switching, i, x, y, shouldSwitch, dir, switchcount = 0;
table = document.getElementById("data_table");
switching = true;
dir = "asc";
while (switching) {
switching = false;
rows = table.rows;
for (i = 1; i < (rows.length - 1); i++) {
shouldSwitch = false;
x = rows[i].getElementsByTagName("TD")[n];
y = rows[i + 1].getElementsByTagName("TD")[n];
if (dir == "asc") {
if (x.innerHTML.toUpperCase() > y.innerHTML.toUpperCase()) {
shouldSwitch = true;
break;
}
} else if (dir == "desc") {
if (x.innerHTML.toUpperCase() < y.innerHTML.toUpperCase()) {
shouldSwitch = true;
break;
}
}
}
if (shouldSwitch) {
rows[i].parentNode.insertBefore(rows[i + 1], rows[i]);
switching = true;
switchcount ++;
} else {
if (switchcount == 0 && dir == "asc") {
dir = "desc";
switching = true;
}
}
}
}
<table class="table table-striped table-bordered" id="data_table">
<thead>
<tr>
<th onclick="sortTable(0)">Full Name</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>EEEEeFFFFgggHH GoodeC</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>bbbBBBbb GoodeX</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ccccccc</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>caregiver testing testing</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>aaaaaaa test GoodeE</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
What did I missed here?
