</table>
However, I am using JavaScript initialization:
var table = $('#example').DataTable( {
data: myData,
dom: "B<'row'<'col-sm-6'l><'col-sm-6'f>><'row'<'col-sm-12'tr>><'row'<'col-sm-5'i><'col-sm-7'p>>",
columns: [ {
title: "Position",
data: 'position'
}, {
title: "Salary",
data: 'salary'
}, {
title: "Office",
data: 'office'
}, {title: "Extn",
data: 'Extn'},
{title: "Email",
data: 'Email'}],
});
<table id="cacheTable" class="table-striped">
</table>
This in itself works fine (example doesn't include data/libraries), but now how do I add the complex headers when I instantiate DataTables in this way?
You build complex header by including thead element in your HTML markup, no matter what the data source is. There is no need for columns.title if you're using complex header.
$(document).ready(function() {
var data = [{"name":"Tiger Nixon","position":"System Architect","salary":"$320,800","start_date":"2011/04/25","office":"Edinburgh","extn":"5421"}];
$('#example').DataTable({
data: data,
columns: [
{ data: "name" },
{ data: "position" },
{ data: "office" },
{ data: "extn" },
{ data: "start_date" },
{ data: "salary" }
]
});
} );

datatable fixed column
Need help bruh, how can I make 1 table with 3 scrolls
horizontal scroll for 1st - 3rd columns, with fixed width
horizontal scroll for 4th - ... columns
for vertical scroll
with or without DataTable plugin fixed column
Thanks in advance
I have tried to freeze the left most column and header in table.
I am able to achieve it and it works perfectly fine in chrome but not so perfectly in firefox.
The problem is that while scrolling to the right (left column remains freeze) but the header scrolls at slower rate than body giving a shaddow effect on the table.The header and Body are not in sync while scrolling to the left
Finally This JavaScript Tag is responsible for stutter while scrolling to the left on Mozilla and IE what optimization can I Apply ?
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#resultBlock').scroll(function(e) {
$('#headerBlock').css("right", $('#resultBlock').scrollLeft());
$('#resultBlock').find("th:nth-child(1)").css("left", $(this).scrollLeft());
$('#resultBlock').find("th:nth-child(2)").css("left", $(this).scrollLeft());
});
});
</script>
Here is the working example using DataTable Js.
$(document).ready(function() {
var table = $('#example').DataTable({
scrollY: "200px",
scrollX: true,
scrollCollapse: true,
paging: false,
fixedColumns: {
leftColumns: 1,
leftColumns: 2
}
});
});
th,
td {
white-space: nowrap;
}
div.dataTables_wrapper {
width: 600px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.order-column {
background: #fff;
}
.dataTables_filter,
.dataTables_info {
display: none;
}

I need help with my code. Currently it's working nicely on desktop screen but however on mobile, I need the Show entries and Search field location as center fixed like the select box above. Right now if I scrolled the table horizontally, both input field will also move which is not what I wanted.
Here's the html code:
<div class="center"><select name="act" onchange="javascript:void(document.list.submit());"><option value="kfc">KFC</option><option value="sub">SUBWAY</option><option value="pzh">Pizza Hut</option></select></div>

Reference :

I am using Jquery datatable in my application. My table contains the following columns:
1.Name 2.Position 3.Office 4.Age 5.Date and 6.Salary
In that, I am dynamically constructing a multi select filter options for 'Office' column from the table response. I have tried my example in the following JSFiddle link.

JS Code:
$(document).ready(function (){
var table = $('#example').DataTable({
dom: 'lrtip',
initComplete: function () {
this.api().columns([2]).every( function () {
var column = this;
console.log(column);
var select = $("#officeFltr");
column.data().unique().sort().each( function ( d, j ) {
select.append( '<option value="'+d+'">'+d+'</option>' )
} );
} );
$("#officeFltr").material_select();
}
});
$('#officeFltr').on('change', function(){
var search = [];
$.each($('#officeFltr option:selected'), function(){
search.push($(this).val());
});
search = search.join('|');
table.column(2).search(search, true, false).draw();
});
});
But this filter function is not working since it contains special character brackets '(' & ')' in the option.
I tried the below motioned line also to disable regex. But this is working fine only for single option and not for multiple options.
table.column(2).search(search, false, false).draw();
Is there any other way to achieve this?
The problem is because of parenthesis ()
In order to work properly you have to add backslashes \
var escape_parenthesis = new RegExp( '(\\' + [ '(', ')'].join('|\\') + ')', 'g' );
search = search.replace( escape_parenthesis, '\\$1' );
JSFiddle
You can simply the Datatble escepe Regex util function $.fn.dataTable.util.escapeRegex() for each select value :
var val;
$.each($('#officeFltr option:selected'), function(){
val = $.fn.dataTable.util.escapeRegex($(this).val());
search.push(val);
});
See Fiddle
Snippet below :
$(document).ready(function() {
var table = $('#example').DataTable({
dom: 'lrtip',
initComplete: function() {
this.api().columns([2]).every(function() {
var column = this;
console.log(column);
var select = $("#officeFltr");
column.data().unique().sort().each(function(d, j) {
select.append('<option value="' + d + '">' + d + '</option>')
});
});
$("#officeFltr").material_select();
}
});
$('#officeFltr').on('change', function() {
var search = [];
var val;
$.each($('#officeFltr option:selected'), function() {
val = $.fn.dataTable.util.escapeRegex($(this).val());
search.push(val);
});
search = search.join('|');
table.column(2).search(search, true, false).draw();
});
});

and I want to update total on search keyup.
Can anybody give me any hint to do this? :)
Thanks a lot :)
Use selector-modifier { search: 'applied' } as second argument for column() API method.
Change:
total = api
.column(4)
.data()
.reduce( function (a, b) {
return intVal(a) + intVal(b);
}, 0 );
to
total = api
.column( 4, { search: 'applied' } )
.data()
.reduce( function (a, b) {
return intVal(a) + intVal(b);
}, 0 );
See updated jsFiddle for code and demonstration.
