function theme_table_header_sortable

6.x theme.inc theme_table_header_sortable($headers = array(), $element_id = "default")

Given an array of table headers (in the format listed below), returns back the HTML to draw it to the screen. This makes them clickable, to make the table header sortable. This is meant to be used with queries, by adding in an "ORDER BY" clause.

$headers should look like this: 0 = array('label' => 'First Name', 'field' => 'field__first_name');

If the label should NOT be clickable, then "field" should be blank or absent.
