I have the code below, I have been fighting to get this to work, to the point where I copied the example from the tablesorter website. Can anyone help me with what I’m doing wrong? I’ve followed tutorial videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wAWfPVXlME

        $(document).ready(function() 
            {
                $("#myTable").tablesorter();
            }
        );

    Make sure you load the tablesorter core:

    <script src="jquery-1.8.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.tablesorter.js"></script> 
<script src="jquery.tablesorter.pager.js"></script>

    And since it looks like you’re using HTML5, the type="text/javascript" isn’t needed inside the script tag.
