/** * Sorting in Javascript for Chinese Character. The Chinese Characters are * sorted on the radical and number of strokes. This plug-in performs sorting * for Chinese characters using the Javascript [localeCompare](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/localeCompare) * function. * * Please note that `localeCompare` is not implemented in the same way in all * browsers, potentially leading to different results (particularly in IE). * * @name Chinese (string) * @summary Sort Chinese characters * @author [Patrik Lindström](http://www.lcube.se/sorting-chinese-characters-in-javascript/) * * @example * $('#example').dataTable( { * columnDefs: [ * { type: 'chinese-string', targets: 0 } * ] * } ); */ jQuery.extend( jQuery.fn.dataTableExt.oSort, { "chinese-string-asc" : function (s1, s2) { return s1.localeCompare(s2); }, "chinese-string-desc" : function (s1, s2) { return s2.localeCompare(s1); } } );
