I have an application, which I can't share with you since it is password protected unfortunately, that implements a datatable of prices.
I need to be able to sort these prices, which are in the following formatting: [€ 10,00]. At first I didn't give it any thought, but I soon oticed it didn't sort correcty. After some searching, I noticed datatables handled this as a string. So I implemented the currency sorting and currency auto-detect snippets. Which didn't do anything. It added a type to the types array, even though I couldn't see what type in my firebug debugger, but it did add one.
After that I saw the small print on the website that both of these were deprecated in the latest version of the library (1.10.0+). I was on 10.0, so just to make sure, I updated to the latest 1.10.3 and removed my snippets. Now that hasn't amounted to anything and I'm kind of stuck, since I don't really want to code currency sorting myself, seeing there are too many ways differences in formatting between currencies.
Anybody any tips or tricks to get this started?
