Sort broken in Drupal 11 / jQuery 4

Sorting does not seem to work though I don't see any error message in the console.

Personally I am not sure why we I added table sorting - it seems like a barely useful feature to me. Since sorting doesn't work anyway, I guess it won't hurt to remove it and see if it breaks some odd use case.

Do you have any idea (or a way to check) if sorting works on Drupal 10.2?

Hi there,

In no fix is provided for this issue here, I have developed this module that implements these deprecated jQuery modules, you can use this if you want: https://www.drupal.org/project/jquery_deprecated_functions →

@gbyte Use case was for the SEO team sorting to get the latest content on the site. This can obviously be done from within Drupal but only if the user is signed in and has the necessary permissions to do so. Sitemaps are public so this wasn't a requirement before.

@gbyte Not sure about 10.2 but it works in 10.5. Issue is specific to Drupal 11 & jQuery 4 as mentioned.

Table sorting does work in Drupal 10.2 in Chrome, but not in Firefox. Firefox does not seem to fire "DOMContentLoaded" in XSL. I replaced document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {}) with $(document).ready(() => {}) in simple_sitemap.xsl.js. This makes table sorting work in Firefox (and Drupal 10.2).

In Drupal 11.2 the modified simple_sitemap.xsl.js also throws the JavaScript-Error in Firefox.

The used tablesorter library uses deprecated functions in many places and is not compatible with jQuery 4 which is used in Drupal 11.2. See tablesorter issue #1852.

Another possibility to fix this would be shipping jQuery 3 with simple_sitemap and including it in the sitemap instead of core's jQuery.

Tagging to make it easier to find this issue.
