This is a quick demo of a table sort I wrote in javascript. It's ultra simple to use and is quite speedy. Below the table is 744 rows. It's made up of random numbers and a bunch of dates. Sorting is quite speedy, as you can see.

Just click on the Col's to sort, click again to reverse the sort.

It also supports "multi-sort" in which the last sorted cols are used to win ties, and thus have some sub sorting
