Hi,

I want to use Christian Bach's tableSorter client-side table sorting jQuery plugin with my asp.Net GridView control.

But the problem is, in the documentation it writes:

tablesorter works on standard HTML tables. You must include THEAD and TBODY tags:

And unfortunately asp.net renders my GridView only with tags and header row stays within as the 1st row.

I have tried:

   dgvRate.HeaderRow.TableSection = TableRowSection.TableHeader;

after calling .DataBind();

It only helped to have <TH></TH> within the header . But still everything is inside <tbody>

Can I accomplish this, I mean moving my 1st row from <tbody></tbody> to <thead></thead> ?

I do not want to add it manually on PreRender stage; I am sure this could be handled much simpler, isn't it?

thanks
