how can I make a column unsortable when using the dojo toolkit's grid?

Question

I've got a grid (dojox.grid v1.2) that I don't want to be sortable. How can I disable that?

Found it:

To save linking:

In your onload, or postrender add code like this:

dojo.byId('myGridId').canSort = function(col){ if(Math.abs(col) == 3) { return false; } else { return true; } };

(Note, the columns seem to be indexed from 1 in this setting.)
