Well, apart from the GPL license, i can build the client-code myself
(with the help of others?) or look for something else.
I received an script from Simon H... that does basicly the same without
the license issue.
Is idea of an sortable table OK and what about the name
HTML_Table_Sortable?
Just want to start developing PEAR packages. :-)
Who likes to join me in developing my first?
Greetings,
Richard Ruiter
