I am making a website about a shuffleboard league. And for the past 3 weeks I have tried to get my tables to look like the sample on this page, http://datatables.net/release-datatables/extras/FixedColumns/two_columns.html The only thing I want to change about this table is to sort by descending order on first click. However I have failed miserably. So at this point I am asking, does anyone have a working table like this one with code they are willing to share?

    Use asSorting to change the order of how the sorting is applied.

    Awesome I got the descending order to work!

    Now I would like to get the first 2 columns fixed. I am using iLeftColumns with no luck.


    here is a link to my table: http://roadrunner.cs.wcupa.edu/~tf577681/final/leagueLeaders.php
