I'm trying to sort through my table column by clicking the header without loading the page.

What I'm trying to do is when a user clicks on the headers next to sort link, I want it to load without refreshing the whole page. How would I add this onto my code?

module ListsHelper
def sort_link(column, title = nil)

icon = sort_direction == "asc" ? "fas fa-chevron-up" : "fas fa-chevron-down"
icon = column == sort_column ? icon : ""
link_to "#{title} <i class='#{icon}'></i>".html_safe, params.merge(:sort => column, direction: direction)
end
end

I finally fixed the problem.



The problem was that I had remote: true inside



link_to "#{title} <i class='#{icon}'></i>".html_safe, params.merge(:sort => column, direction: direction, remote: true)


instead



link_to "#{title} <i class='#{icon}'></i>".html_safe, params.merge(:sort => column, direction: direction), remote: true
