Dear All,  
I am trying to use Table sort Jquery plugin to sort my table  
in  
Rails application by clicking Table header. But it is not working.I  
added  
\<%= javascript\_include\_tag ‘jquery.js’%\>  
\<%= javascript\_include\_tag ‘jquery.tablesorter.js’%\> in my layout…

Here is my Code,

# Listing books

```
<% @books.each do |book| %>

```

 \<% end %\>

| Title | Author |
| --- | --- |
| \<%=h book.title %\> | \<%=h book.author %\> |

  
\<%= link\_to 'New book', new\_book\_path %\>
