Send click event

Newcoma

Hello
Im loading the dataTable script when I click a sortable column like this

$('.tables th').click(function(){

$('.tables').dataTable();

});

The problem is I want to both excecute the dataTable script and pass the click event to the .tables th to sort the column. But I have to click one more time on the column to do this.

Hope it makes sense.

Actually I activate it with this so it only initialize the dataTables once. But the problem is still the same

$('.tables th').one("click", function() {
$('.tables').dataTable();
});

What if you manually fire the fnSort function? Something like

[code]
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.tables th').one("click", function() {
var table = $('.tables').dataTable();
table.fnSort( [ [0,'asc'], [1,'asc'] ] );
});
[/code]

Dose not work I only get table.fnSort is not a function

What I want to achieve is that when you click on $('.tables th') the dataTable is loaded for that table only like var oTable = $(this).closest('.tables').dataTable() and then the click for that th is passed at the same time to sort the column.

Im not sure if this example pvovides a solution http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/advanced_init/dt_events.html
