Tablesorter n[0] undefined

I am having issues with the tablesorter. The error is: n[0] is undefined

function appendToTable(table,cache) {

            if(table.config.debug) {var appendTime = new Date()}

            var c = cache, 
                r = c.row, 
                n= c.normalized, 
                totalRows = n.length, 
                checkCell = (n[0].length-1), 
                tableBody = $(table.tBodies[0]),
                rows = [];

            for (var i=0;i < totalRows; i++) {
                rows.push(r[n[i][checkCell]]);  
                if(!table.config.appender) {

                    var o = r[n[i][checkCell]];
                    var l = o.length;
                    for(var j=0; j < l; j++) {

                        tableBody[0].appendChild(o[j]);

                    }

                    //tableBody.append(r[n[i][checkCell]]);
                }
            }   

Above is a code snippet from the jquery.tablesorter.js The line where it says checkCell = (n[0].length - 1) is where the error is occuring.

I do not understand how an undefined object is being passed into the function. The tablesorter was working fine in one of my project but not working fine on this project.

[EDIT] This is the code snippet used to call the tablesorter. If I comment out the tablesorter and tablesorterPager nothing else in my code will break.

$reviewTable = $("#reviewTable");
$reviewTable.tablesorter();
$reviewTable.tablesorterPager({ container: $("#pager"), size: 100, widgets: ['zebra'] });

Below is the client side

<asp:Repeater ID="reviewRepeater" runat="server">
    <HeaderTemplate>
        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="MarkAsReceived" id="reviewTable">

If I remember, you are getting that error because the table is initially empty ( the tbody ). So modify that line of code from this:

checkCell = (n[0].length-1),

to this:

checkCell = totalRows ? (n[0].length - 1) : 0,

If you are interested, I've forked and added lots of enhancements (including the change above) to the original tablesorter plugin on github.
