What I am trying to achieve is to use that length from sessionStorage and add it to all my tables, so if I select 50 entries, I want to somehow read that from the session and add it to all tables, so everywhere will be 50 entries selected.
Can anybody try to help me with this?

DataTables conditional calculation on page load

I'm using this API plugin of datatables in order to calculate the sum of a column, I need to amend it slightly.
According to the docs;
The DataTables API is designed to be fully extensible, with custom functions being very easy to add using the $.fn.dataTable.Api.register function. This function takes two arguments; the first being the name of the method to be added and its chaining hierarchy, and the second the function itself.
How would I get the sum of age in all rows where office equals Tokyo, and display this outside of the table in a html element? I need this to display on page load, without clicking any button or filtering.
Code below;
html
<p id="sum"></p> <!-- display sum of Tokyo here -->
<table id="example" class="display" style="width:100%">

How to change the style of the "next page", "prev page" button in table created by jquery.datatable?

You can refer to the following snippet in order to change the previous and next button styles

$('#example').DataTable( {
"pagingType": "full_numbers"
} );
} );
a.paginate_button.next {
background: red !important;
}
a.paginate_button.previous {
background: blue !important;
}

Filter datatable column using dropdown

I am having problems with datatable filtering records as per dropdown values.
Let's say for example Garrett Winters is a user who is connected to two or more offices like Tokyo, San Francisco. If I search for the Tokyo office then Garrett Winters should be be in that list and if I search for the San Francisco office then again Garrett Winters should be come in that list.
Currently in the dropdown a new option generated as Tokyo,San Francisco which is not needed when searching Garrett Winters name only.
Can anyone help with this?
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#tableTrigger').DataTable({

[10, 25, 50, 100, -1],
[10, 25, 50, 100, "All"]
],
"scrollY": "200px",
"dom": 'rtipS',
// searching: false,
"deferRender": true,
initComplete: function() {
var column = this.api().column(2);
var select = $('<select class="filter"><option value=""></option></select>')
.appendTo('#selectTriggerFilter')
.on('change', function() {
var val = $(this).val();
column.search(val ? '^' + $(this).val() + '$' : val, true, false).draw();
});
column.data().unique().sort().each(function(d, j) {
select.append('<option value="' + d + '">' + d + '</option>');
});
}
});

When generating the <option>s you will have to check the value if it contains more than one city and remove the duplicate entries:
var values = [];
column.data().each(function(d, j) {
d.split(",").forEach(function(data) {
if (values.indexOf(data) === -1) {
values.push(data);
}
});
});
The second necessary step is to change the way you build your regex for filtering. At the moment you're only looking for the complete line (^...$) instead of words. This can be done with word boundaries (\b):
.on('change', function() {
column.search(this.value ? '\\b' + this.value + '\\b' : "", true, false).draw();
})
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#tableTrigger').DataTable({
"lengthMenu": [
[10, 25, 50, 100, -1],
[10, 25, 50, 100, "All"]
],
"scrollY": "200px",
"dom": 'rtipS',
"deferRender": true,
"initComplete": function() {
var column = this.api().column(2);
var values = [];
column.data().each(function(d, j) {
d.split(",").forEach(function(data) {
data = data.trim();
if (values.indexOf(data) === -1) {
values.push(data);
}
});
});
$('<select class="filter"><option value=""></option></select>')
.append(values.sort().map(function(o) {
return '<option value="' + o + '">' + o + '</option>';
}))
.on('change', function() {
column.search(this.value ? '\\b' + this.value + '\\b' : "", true, false).draw();
})
.appendTo('#selectTriggerFilter');
}
});
});

You must split the office strings and build the unique list your self :
var offices = [];
column.data().toArray().forEach(function(s) {
s = s.split(',');
s.forEach(function(d) {
if (!~offices.indexOf(d)) {
offices.push(d);
select.append('<option value="' + d + '">' + d + '</option>');
}
})
})
And change your search back to default, you no longer need a regex match
column.search(val).draw()
demo -> http://jsfiddle.net/m1Ly9uxf/

Enable datatables with custom layout

I want two headers, sorting on top and filter on the next header and then the data.
Problem is, filter is not working this way. Can you help me so that the filter works?
$(document).ready(function() {
// Setup - add a text input to each footer cell
count = 0;
$('#example thead th').each( function () {
var title = $(this).text();
if (count > 5)
$(this).html( '<input type="text" placeholder="Search '+title+'" />' );
count++;
} );
// DataTable
var table = $('#example').DataTable({
"bInfo": false,
"bSortCellsTop": true,
sDom: "t"
});
// Apply the search
table.columns().every( function () {
var that = this;
$( 'input', this.header() ).on( 'keyup change', function () {
if ( that.search() !== this.value ) {
that
.search( this.value )
.draw();
}
} );
} );
} );

It seems like it's this code that needs to be changed:
if (that.search() !== this.value) {
that
.search(this.value)
.draw();
}
this.header() will always refer to the first header row so you need to use a custom selector to target each input.
$(document).ready(function() {
// Setup - add a text input to each footer cell
count = 0;
$('#example thead th').each(function() {
var title = $(this).text();
if (count > 5)
$(this).html('<input type="text" placeholder="Search ' + title + '" />');
count++;
});
// DataTable
var table = $('#example').DataTable({
"bInfo": false,
"bSortCellsTop": true,
sDom: "t"
});
// Apply the search
table.columns().every(function() {
var that = this;
$(`#example thead input:nth(${this.index()})`).on('keyup change', function() {
if (that.search() !== this.value) {
that
.search(this.value)
.draw();
}
});
