Check out the getting started demo to see how to setup FooTable.

Include Bookmarkable Add-On

Include the bookmarkable add-on javascript file to make your table sortable:

<script src="path_to_your_js/footable.bookmarkable.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Enable "bookmarkable" when you initialize footable:

<script type="text/javascript">
		  $(function () {
		  $('.footable').footable({
   		      bookmarkable: { enabled: true }
		  });
		  });
</script>

Bookmarkable

The bookmarkable add-on maintains state in the URI fragment (hash) as user actions modify the view of a table, and reads state from the URI fragment when initializing. This allows a user to save a URL to a specific view of the table.

The bookmark tracks which rows are expanded, and if you are using the sorting, filtering, or pagination plug-ins, also tracks those features. In this demo, sorting is enabled. See the showcase demo for another example.

If your footable has an id, it will be included in the parameters in the bookmark -- so if you have more than one footable on a page, they can be tracked separately.

Note that bookmarking is disabled by default, so you must include this in the configuration you pass to the footable function to get bookmarks:

bookmarkable: { enabled: true }
