[jQuery] Tablesorter problems

[Mike]

Hi I have recently come across the tablesorter 2.0 for jquery and have
decided to use it on my website.  I have the examples to work etc.
however I would like to exclude the first column of my table from
being sorted and just to remain static irrespect of the other columns
being sortable.

I have found this : 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/437290/exclude-a-column-from-being-sorted-using-jquery-tablesorter
which is exactly what I needed however when pasting it into my test
web page I get line 16 parse error (missing before statement).

I have no previous experience of knowledge of jQuery so I would
appreciate if someone could look at my test page and see what the
problem is: http://www.freebetsextra.co.uk/tablesorter/tests/freebet3.html.

This is the widget I am trying to use:

$(function() {
    // add new widget called indexFirstColumn
    $.tablesorter.addWidget({
        // give the widget a id
        id: "indexFirstColumn",
        // format is called when the on init and when a sorting has
finished
        format: function(table) {
                // loop all tr elements and set the value for the
first column
                for(var i=0; i < table.tBodies[0].rows.length; i++) {
                        $("tbody tr:eq(" + (i - 1) + ")
td:first",table).html(i);
                }
        }
    });

    $("table").tablesorter({
        widgets: ['zebra','indexFirstColumn']
    });

});
