Complex headers / orderCellsTop - need to use middle header for sorting

mhingston

Hi,

I have a table with 3 header rows, I want to make it so the middle row is used for sorting the columns. As far as I can see this is controlled through the option orderCellsTop which can either be true (use the top row) or false (use the bottom row), what should I do if I want to use the middle row for sorting columns, a basic example would be really useful.

Thanks.

I managed to achieve what I needed to using pseudo elements, not ideal but it works for my use case.
