Sort Not working when adding rows to table.

btrain52

Hey, so i'm having an issue when it comes to sorting. I'm adding my rows into the table dynamically using the add.row().
However, the rows inserted are not sorting accordingly. I believe i'm setting up the data-order properly.
An example of what I have

var rownum = mytable.row.add(result).node();
$(rownum).find('td').eq(0).css('width','50px');
$(rownum).find('td').eq(2).attr('data-order', a[i].data1);
$(rownum).find('td').eq(3).attr('data-order', a[i].datat2);
$(rownum).find('td').eq(4).attr('data-order', a[i].data3);
$(rownum).find('td').eq(5).attr('data-order', a[i].data4);
$(rownum).find('td').eq(6).attr('data-order', a[i].data5);

Any advice would be great.
Thank you!
