Sorting Columns on HTML file created in Excel
 

Hi.. I'm not sure if I'm just searching for the wrong words, but can't
find the answer to this..

I've created an excel file, about 15 columns.. In excel, I can sort the
columns easily, but, I've saved the file as HTML now. How can I make it
that those columns can still be sortable on the internet? Is there
special code I need to put somewhere? I've seen javascript codes that
can do this, but I would like to do it all via excel if possible.
Any help appreciated!

Thanks,

Hi Terri and Rob,
You could include the JavaScript (Bookmarklet) within your HTML code,
keep in mind that it will be a text only sort..

an example of the sort used within a webpage can be seen in
Bookmarklets (JavaScript Favelets)
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/ie/bookmarklets.htm
as noted it would not work from Internet Explorer except as included in the HTML.
In Firefox you can use a bookmarklet as a bookmark or as included in the HTML.
