<button id="btnGet">
Get Rows
</button>
I'm using jQuery DataTables. What I'm trying to do is to get the rows which are present in the table DOM, for example:
If my table contains 100 rows and 15 of them contains X column with "today" value and I look for that value in the search box from the datatable I want to get that 15 rows instead of 100.
Here is a fiddle to play with it.
$('#btnGet').on('click', function () {
const dt = $('#example').DataTable();
dt.rows((idx, data, node) => {
console.log(data);
});
});
What I tried so far is this:
Type "Tokyo" on the datatable search bar.
Table is paginated and it's showing 5 rows of 57 total entries.
dt.rows().nodes() is returning 57 instead of 5.
You'll need to add a selector to your rows() function. Something like this:
dt.rows({ filter: 'applied' }).nodes();
Please see this reference for more details.
Here is an example; I did a bit of formatting so show the results;
I did it as you type but you can also put that in the button click handler.
Key here is to apply a select modifier i.e. { search: 'applied' } to the rows. ref: https://datatables.net/reference/type/selector-modifier
So for example in your button click handler you can using your code do:
dt.rows({ filter: 'applied' }).nodes().count() - Updated with that example below also.
Here is an additional reference for server side processing: http://live.datatables.net/kixixuqe/1/edit
$(function() {
let dttable = $('#example').DataTable({
select: true
});
dttable.on('search.dt', function() {
let findme = $(this).DataTable().rows({
search: 'applied'
}).count();
let foundThing = dttable.search();
// console.log(findme);

Probably DataTables is interfering click event, so better bind to mousedown event. Also, use on() so we can chain both calls. Also, with the on() method, we are affecting future .paginate_button DOM elements, as you don't know how DataTables works (and you don't have to). I've also added a log to see when this event is triggered, so you can easily debug or change behavior.
$('#example').DataTable();
$("#custom_pagination")
.append($(".dataTables_paginate"))
.on('mousedown', 'a.paginate_button', function(ev){
console.log("Clicked: " + ev.target);
$('html, body').animate({scrollTop:0}, 'slow');
return true;
});
Datatable is creating new .paginate_button elements at each draw. So those are dynamic.
You have to use Datatables drawCallback, to have the current pagination buttons appended after each draw.
And you should use delegation for the click handler.
$('#example').DataTable({
drawCallback: function(){
$("#custom_pagination").append($(".dataTables_paginate"));
}
});
$('.paginate_button').on("click",function(){
$('html, body').animate({scrollTop:0}, 'slow');
return true;
});

FIRST THINGS FIRST .... YOU NEED TO ADD JQUERY cdn before Datatable...
Secondly...its a JS file not a stylesheet..what you written was
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.16/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js">
which should have been..
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.16/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
& you can then use the order function
$('#example').DataTable( {
"order": [[ 4, "asc" ]] // since date Start date is 4th col
} );
here is a working fiddle
I am trying to create a sort triangles in front of my table headers. But it is successfully applied to first two headers of the table and remaining header remains same. Here is screen shot how it is applied to first 2 headers.
Here is my PHP code
$table_str = '<table id="projectsTable" width = 100% class="top-margin sortable ">';
$table_str.='<thead><tr>';
$table_str.='<th align="center">'.$Projects.'</th>
<th align="center">'.$Subprojects.'</th>
<th align="center" class="displayNone">
<h4>ProjId</h4></th>
<th align="center" class="displayNone"><h4>SubProjId</h4></th>
<th align="center">'.$EC_Available.'</th>
<th align="center">'.$EC_Used.'</th>
<th align="center">'.$Date_Created.'</th>
<th align="center">'.$Date_Modified.'</th>
<th align="center">'.$Project_Status.'</th>';
$table_str.='</tr>
</thead>
</table>
My corresponding css code for sort triangles.
table.sortable th:not(:last-child):not(.sorttable_sorted):not(.sorttable_sorted_reverse):not(.sorttable_nosort):after
{
content: " \25B4\25BE"
}
#projectsTable thead th
{
padding:20px ;
}
Is there any problem with inline elements?. I did not get why the sort triangles below the header instead of next to header.
You just need to use jquery datatable library Please run below code
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#example').DataTable();
} );
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.13/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.13/js/dataTables.bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<link href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.13/css/dataTables.bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<table id="example" class="table table-striped table-bordered" cellspacing="0" width="100%">

I am implementing a dynamic table using DataTables.
The issue is, everything work fine with DataTable plugin as I intended to,
but When I realised that there is a Button datatable plugin which exports
tabledata as pdf, csv etc, I tried to implant this functionality into my project. Unfortunately it is not working, it's not even showing up any buttons. And I would like to know where I could have done wrong.
Just to let you know, I loaded script files from official datatables download section which are:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/v/bs-3.3.6/jqc-1.12.3/jszip-2.5.0/pdfmake-0.1.18/dt-1.10.12/b-1.2.2/b-colvis-1.2.2/b-flash-1.2.2/b-html5-1.2.2/b-print-1.2.2/se-1.2.0/datatables.min.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.datatables.net/v/bs-3.3.6/jqc-1.12.3/jszip-2.5.0/pdfmake-0.1.18/dt-1.10.12/b-1.2.2/b-colvis-1.2.2/b-flash-1.2.2/b-html5-1.2.2/b-print-1.2.2/se-1.2.0/datatables.min.js"></script>
And here is my document ready function
$(document).ready(function() {
manageMemberTable = $("#manageMemberTable").DataTable({
"processing": true,
"ajax": "php_action/retrieve.php",
"order": [],
"dom": 'Bfrtip',
"buttons": [
'copy', 'csv', 'excel', 'pdf', 'print'
]
});
});
What could have gone wrong? Please share your ideas, thank you in advance!
I think you forget to include the buttons js in your code that's why the button is not showing. These are the following JS:
