title: JQuery Tablesorter with newer JQuery version
body: <p>I'm trying to use the Tablesorter plugin with Wordpress' version of JQuery, version 1.7.2.  This is not working, and I've narrowed it down to incompatibility with the JQuery version by taking one of the demos (demo.html, in fact), uploading it and the associated files to my web server, testing to make sure that it works, and then replacing this line:</p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="../jquery-latest.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</code></p>
  
  <p>with this:</p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.example.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.7.2'&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</code></p>
  
  <p>(as that is the resulting line from loading JQuery in WordPress).  I don't want to load JQuery from another source, as I'd like to stay within the WordPress ecosystem for such libraries in the name of compatibility.</p>
  
  <p>Honestly, it's not even a matter of making the Tablesorter plugin work with newer JQuery releases, I just want a way to sort tables, and this seemed like the go-to way.  I'm open to ideas of how I can either make this work, or any other way that I can sort some tables.</p>
  
  <p>I posted this here, and not to the WordPress Stack Exchange, as it seems to be more of a JQuery question than a WordPress question (although asking there about a way to sort tables might not be a bad idea..)</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
