You should create your own custom sort type. Take a look at http://webfx.eae.net/dhtml/sortabletable/customsorttypedemo.html and the external js files.

Something like:

function getMyValue( s )
{
return parseFloat( n );
}

SortableTable.prototype.addSortType( "MySort", getMyValue );

You might also want to use the other arguments to addSortType to get more control but looking at your code it seems like parseFloat is sufficient.
