Sorting

redRAD integrates the standard Joomla! sorting but using layouts to render the Html. So you can customise the layout per component without having to deal with it.

Normal sorting

This is the most used case for the title of table columns.

<?php echo JHtml::_('rgrid.sort', 'JGRID_HEADING_ID', 'a.id', $listDirn, $listOrder); ?>

Sorting for ordering column

Special example of the ordering column that only displays an icon.

<?php echo JHtml::_('rgrid.sort', null, 'a.ordering', $listDirn, $listOrder, null, 'asc', '', 'icon-sort'); ?>
