do you know how to sort data in an apex:pageBlockTable in a simple way (i am starting visualforce developments).

I use the standard account controller for this page. Thanks!

here is an example, i want to sort the related opportunities for this VF page generated via a button from every SF account:

 <apex:pageBlock >  
    <apex:pageBlockSection title="Opportunities" collapsible="false">
       <apex:pageBlockTable value="{!Account.opportunities}" var="opportunity" border="1px solid black" cellpadding="3" rowClasses="alldatarows">
           <apex:column value="{!opportunity.StageName}" style="padding: 7px;order-bottom: 1px solid ddd;border: 1px solid black;"/>
           <apex:column value="{!opportunity.Amount}" style="padding: 7px;order-bottom: 1px solid ddd;border: 1px solid black;"/>
           <apex:column value="{!opportunity.CloseDate}" style="padding: 7px;order-bottom: 1px solid ddd;border: 1px solid black;"/>
        </apex:pageBlockTable>
    </apex:pageBlockSection>

</apex:pageBlock>

  • You will need either JavaScript or Apex. You can't sort using only the standard controller.

  • Personally, I recommend against investing time learning Visaulforce. Its use cases at this point are fairly niche. Learn Lightning Web Components instead.

Please check Jquery based approaches Refer the link below. As Adrian mentioned on the comment a better approach is LWC. Sorting apex:pageblocktable
