Change empty cells to end of sort rather than start.

[LeeWannacott]

Research what localeCompare considers the lowest value in JS for sort and change empty cells to this value (value#+i)nstead of i columnData.push("0#" + i); So white space ends up at the end of the table rather than the start when sorting.

I am experiencing this issue where whitespace sorts to the top when sorting highest at top. Is there anything I must do to make it work?

[LeeWannacott]

@warmwhisky I'm guessing you are using order-by-desc and the whitespace is expected be at the bottom (on the first click)?

I just tested it out; I don't think what you are getting is the desired behavior.

We should put whitespace at the bottom when ordering by desc; I'll reopen the issue.

Sorry, yes I am using order-by-desc, but It's not only on the first click, whitespace is always at the top when sorting by descend.

We should put whitespace at the bottom when ordering by desc; I'll reopen the issue.

That would be great if you could fix it. I've been using DataTables for years, in most instances just for the sorting functionality. This package is a much lighter solution.

Being at the top on the second click is currently the intended behavior, but I guess could have whitespace at the bottom on both accounts; it probably makes a bit more sense...
