I'm trying to figure out tho how to sort multiple tables on the same page. Is that something which is feasible? i.e. in my dashboard page, i want to display 2 tables, A and B, each one being sortable and paginated. Thanks, .Karim Hi,

When using Ferret (Lucene) you are looking for relevant results. The sorting of the results is determined by parameters inside of Ferret. Unlike an active record .find() there is no :order parameter which is used here. You might check <a href="http://ferret.davebalmain.com/api/classes/Ferret/Index/FieldInfo.html" title="Ferret API: Ferret::Index::FieldInfo" rel="nofollow">this</a> page and read up on the different properties that can be associated with fields of an active record. Andy,
