bug with filter_startsWith property to True in FF/Chrome

[aarkay18]

I got the latest version 2.1 of tableSorter plugin and tablesorter.widget.js files today. Its a great plugin and loving it. But found an issue with this update.

I was testing with filter_startsWith property set to True. It was working in IE but not in FF/Chrome

So I found the issue and fixed it. In the file "jquery.tablesorter.widget.js" file, in the code for "Filter" widget following line

x = ($td.eq(i).text() + t).toLowerCase().indexOf(v[i]);

has to be replaced with

x = $.trim(($td.eq(i).text() + t)).toLowerCase().indexOf(v[i]);

That is trimming the content of column and finding the indexOf filter text. With some spaces, it was always getting the index to be greater than zero, and thus making it false always. Result is no rows are shown for the filter text.

Hope this helps. Thanks

But a great plugin. works like a charm. Thanks a lot.
