# tablesorter

## Writing custom parsers, advanced use

### Flexible client-side table sorting

Back to documentation

NOTE!

- This method of writing custom parsers will NOT work with the original tablesorter 2.0.5b plugin because the format function does not consistently provide the `cell` and `cellIndex` parameters.
