Put a working example or at least a screenshot on that first page. I don't have time to download a zip file and blah blah blah to see what you made. Make it easy.

The list above the code is a working example of the code.

It is a working example on the first page? :)

Maybe it's just me, but it took me a second to figure out what I was looking at. "HTML Lists" didn't pop out at me right away as specifically meaning and for some reason. You should put the source code by your examples so people see what little they put in for the output they see, and it'll clarify (at least to someone like me) exactly what is going on here. EDIT: I see now that your front page is an example, with so…

Think I have to put a headline describing the list! Wait 5min :)

Is there a similar library that can be used with tables? I like the function and this looks easy to use but my site uses tables over lists.

List.js works on most stuff. Tables, ul, divs, ol, spans, etc. Example 2 at http://listjs.com/examples.html uses tables e.g

How does it compare to http://tablesorter.com/?

I only realized there were examples on the front page after visiting HN. They're completely below the fold for me (1440x900).

The examples page had a similar problem. The examples (pretty close to the fold) looked like comments. I went to read the comments, seeing if anyone had suggested live examples be put on the site.

The contact list example won't let me add contacts if I click "edit" on one row, then delete that row. The table also seems to degrade if you remove all elements.

"Documentation" and "Source" link to the same (Github) page. At least link to README.md for the documentation. Why is the "Download" link bold?

The front page has no indication of the name of this library above the fold.

This is more in the aggregate, but what is considered best practice when loading JS scripts in a page in terms of sum-total size?

This script (looks cool, btw) comes in at 7k. It seems very easy to me to add "7k here, another 7k there" and next thing you know your page needs to go on a diet.

Question is: what's the threshold that everyone follows?

An idea for extending this:

-Add pagination. I don't mean dynamic/AJAXed pagination -- The entire list can still be loaded in the background (which would still make the list sorting/filtering possible).

kinda neat...but...you need to read: http://contrastrebellion.com/ and redesign your site...easily the biggest violation of my eyes ever.

For many people, high intensity/high contrast also causes eyestrain. There's nothing wrong or unreadable about medium contrast text, despite what the somewhat triumphalist contrastrebellion would have you believe.
