The `datatable-sort` module adds column sorting functionality to a basic DataTable.
To add column sorting functionality to any DataTable, simply include the `datatable-sort` module in your `use()` line and add the `sortable: true` configuration to the configuration objects of the columns you want to be sortable.

``` YUI().use("datatable-sort", function(Y) { var cols = [ {key:"Company", label:"Click to Sort Column A", sortable:true}, {key:"Phone", label:"Not Sortable Column B"}, {key:"Contact", label:"Click to Sort Column C", sortable:true} ], data = [ {Company:"Company Bee", Phone:"415-555-1234", Contact:"Sally Spencer"}, {Company:"Acme Company", Phone:"650-555-4444", Contact:"John Jones"}, {Company:"Industrial Industries", Phone:"408-555-5678", Contact:"Robin Smith"} ], table = new Y.DataTable({ columns: cols, data : data, summary: "Contacts list", caption: "Table with simple column sorting" }).render("#sort"); }); ```
