        $(function () {
                    data2 = "carto"; 
                    json_link = 'http://development.localhost.lan:8080/api/v2/sql?q=SELECT * FROM ' + data2;
                    $.getJSON(json_link, function (result) { 
                        var th_main = "";
                        for (var e in result['fields']) {
                            th_main = th_main + '<th>' + e + '</th>';
                        }
                        var table_header = '<thead>' +
                                  '<tr>' +
                                    th_main +
                                 '</tr>' +

                        var body_main = "";
                        for (var i = 0; i < result['rows'].length; i++) {
                            var tr = "<tr>";
                            for (var ele in result['rows'][i]) {
                                tr = tr + '<td>' + result['rows'][i][ele] + '</td>';

        });
    }  
                       }
            );

Solution

There are a couple of things that might be causing your issue:

First, there is an error in your link to jQuery UI - you're missing the http:.

Second, your script has a syntax error on line 57 - there is an extra }.

If you check the browser console it will tell you about these things.

Finally, you need to call .tablesorter() like so (see my final comment for more details):

$("#excelDataTable > table").tablesorter();
