Move sort icons next to header text

Gerald

As the title says, I am trying to move the Ascending and Descending sort icons next to the header text instead of on the far right side.

I realize it's a background image, but maybe there is a way to remove it and put the image on the page so it can be relative aligned?

This will be used many places, so we don't want to try and put padding on the side based on the text size so the image moves over. That would get messy in the long run.

Thanx ahead of time, and yes, this is what the company requires, not my choice. :(

In 1.9- you could enable the bJQueryUI option - that will will put the sorting display into its own span tag, which you would then style as needed.

DataTables 1.10 has a new renderer option to make this markup available without enabling the jQuery UI option, but I've not yet written the documentation for that yet...
