Hi all,

This is the farthest I got http://adityasastry.in/multicolumn.jpg (Screenshot functionality is not working in Ubuntu for some reason, so I had to manually take a photo from my phone of the screen and upload it).

As you can see the arrows are not pointing in the correct direction also the url's attached to those arrows don't work yet.

Maybe those arrows are in correct direction. Check this here: http://stackoverflow.com/a/338202 (Pardon me if my posting style is incorrect).

I agree with the post on stackoverflow. It's strange the first time, but we should see the "arrow" not like an arrow, but like small and large values. Maybe, it would be even clearer to use this kind of icon: http://i.stack.imgur.com/EQUFt.png

Hugues.

The way I see it, this patch should be done by today evening or tommorow evening at max so I guess I will add those icons and show you sir. But I guess we are better of choosing a lighter color icons than those and also they are too Bulky for our narrow table headers maybe.

http://tablesorter.com/docs/ Look at this. May be if we could take the existing arrows and make them darker they will look better don't you think ?

To get a broader opinion on this matter I posted a question in the stackoverflow, user experience forum
