<table id="myTable" class="tablesorter" border=1>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Last Name</th>

<th>Due</th>
<th>Web Site</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Smith</td>
<td>John</td>
<td>jsmith#gmail.com</td>
<td>$50.00</td>

</tr>

<a id="trigger-link" href="#">I want to sort both asc and des`enter code here`c alternately from this link</a>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#myTable").tablesorter();
$("#trigger-link").click(function() {
var sorting = [[0,1]];
$("table").trigger("sorton",[sorting]);
return false;
});
});
</script>

If you are using this fork of tablesorter, you now have two ways to accomplish this:
Trigger a "sort" event on the header cell (v2.9+)
$("table").find("th:contains(Discount)").trigger("sort");
As of v2.17.0, you can trigger the "sorton" method using an "n" (or next) variable
$("table").trigger("sorton", [ [[0,"n"]] ]);
Please see this demo for other sort methods.
