Item11687: TablePlugin ignoring footerrows when sorting columns

Just upgraded from Foswiki-1.1.2 to 1.1.4 with TablePlugin 1.138.

Have a table with footerrows="1" which displays OK without any columns sorted. When you sort any of the columns, the footer row appears mid table according to the sort order.

I've now upgraded to 1.1.7 with TablePlugin 1.141 and this still doesn't work. Can someone please look into it

I've done a bit of debugging and it appears to be related to column spanning. Without column spanning it works OK, the footer is at the bottom:

COL1	COL2
COL1	COL2
A ROW1	A ROW1
B ROW1	B ROW1
D ROW1	D ROW1
E ROW1	E ROW1

With column spanning, the footer line appears in the middle of the table:

COL1	COL2
A ROW1	A ROW1
B ROW1	B ROW1
COL1
D ROW1	D ROW1
E ROW1	E ROW1

Looking at the HTML, with column spanning there is no tfoot section.

Hope this helps.

This is fixed by moving from TablePlugin to client side sorting with the JQTablePlugin. But marking confirmed as it does fail.
