Description
Some tables, such as the event overview on /civicrm/event/manage and the Memberships and Notes tabs for a contact, allow sorting by date using JQuery DataTables.
In a non-English installation, sorting by date produces a random result because the localized dates can't be parsed (see screenshot). Adding a data-order attribute to the cell solves this issue.
This pull request does just that: https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/6534
This is only a minor bug, but it must have existed since datatables were introduced and it's not the first one I've encountered lately that only occurs when using CiviCRM in another language. I think it would be good if developers tested their work in at least one other language before deploying it.
