The Journal Ranking Index uses the Datatables HTML table enhancing library to create an interactive HTML table that is readily embedded on a webpage.
Features beyond that provided by Datatables include:
- A ranking column that remains static on sorting and filtering.
- Custom CSS to conditionally format table cells; making good metrics green, poor metrics red, etc.
- Ranking metrics are distinguishable from classificatory metrics; journals are ordered by ranking metrics while classificatory metrics can be used to isolate a sub-set of journals to rank i.e. to rank only open-access journals.
- Lightweight CSS loading spinner before Datatables initialises.
The current version is built for philosophy journals and the most prominent metrics used in the philosophical discipline.
