Got myself in a funny situation: page has three tables. Using sortEnd, any time you sort one table, it sorts the other three. However, since I bound sortEnd to the function that does the sorting, you get a infinite loop of sorting/resorting. It looks like:

$("table.tablesorter").tablesorter({widgets: ['zebra']}).bind("sortEnd", function() {
    $(this).find("th.headerSortDown,.headerSortUp").each(function(i) {
        index = $(this).attr("cellIndex");
        order = ($(this).is(".headerSortDown")) ? 1 : 0;
        $("table.tablesorter").tablesorter({sortList: [[index,order]]});
    });
});

Any tips on how to clean this up?
