- Copy to clipboard
- Save table data as CSV, XLS or PDF files
- Print view for clean printing
- Row selection options
- Easy use predefined buttons
- Simple customisation of buttons
- Well defined API for advanced control
Installation
To use TableTools, first download DataTables ( http://datatables.net/download ) and place the unzipped TableTools package into a extensions directory in the DataTables package (in DataTables 1.9- use the extras directory). This will allow the pages in the examples to operate correctly. To see the examples running, open the examples directory in your web-browser.
Basic usage
TableTools is initialised using the T option that it adds to DataTables' dom option. For example:
$(document).ready( function () {
$('#example').DataTable( {
dom: 'T<"clear">lfrtip'
} );
} );
