Remove jQuery tablesorter from table
I am using the jQuery tablesorter (http://tablesorter.com). After being applied to a table by $('#myTable').tablesorter() , how can I remove it again from the table? There isn't a built-in function to do this, but you could remove the class names and event bindings to stop its functioning... try something like this: $('table') .unbind('appendCache applyWidgetId applyWidgets sorton update updateCell') .removeClass('tablesorter') .find('thead th') .unbind('click mousedown') .removeClass('header headerSortDown headerSortUp'); The above won't work if you have the pager plugin running.
