Tables can be made sortable by typing class="sortable" in the first line of the table.

{| border= "1" class="sortable"
! Name  
! Age  
! Height
|-
| Joe
| 14
| 5'3"
|-
| Sally 
| 39
| 6'1"
|-
| Bill
| 89
| 5'0"
|}  


Which shows up like this on your web page:

Name Age Height
Joe 14 5'3"
Sally 39 6'1"
Bill 89 5'0"
