This example shows how the toggle option of StateRestore (stateRestoreConfig) can be used to decide what elements of DataTables should save their state when creating a new state.
This example shows all of the options that are available with the toggle option, apart from the column specific options. They are in a separate example.
This example includes all of the extensions that have a state saving element built into them. These are...
| ID | First name | Last name | ZIP / Post code | Country |
|---|
The Javascript shown below is used to initialise the table shown in this example:
$('#example').DataTable({
ajax: '../data/2500.txt',
keys: true,
layout: {
top2Start: 'searchPanes',
top1Start: 'searchBuilder',
topStart: {
buttons: [
{
extend: 'createState',
config: {
creationModal: true,
toggle: {
length: true,
order: true,
paging: true,
scroller: true,
search: true,
searchBuilder: true,
searchPanes: true,
select: true
}
}
},
'savedStates'
]
}
},
rowId: 0,
scrollY: 200,
scrollCollapse: true,
scroller: true,
select: true
});
$('#example').DataTable({

topStart: {

{
extend: 'createState',
config: {
creationModal: true,

}
},
'savedStates'
]
}
},
rowId: 0,
scrollY: 200,
scrollCollapse: true,
scroller: true,
select: true
});
In addition to the above code, the following Javascript library files are loaded for use in this example:
The HTML shown below is the raw HTML table element, before it has been enhanced by DataTables:
This example uses a little bit of additional CSS beyond what is loaded from the library files (below), in order to correctly display the table. The additional CSS used is shown below:
The following CSS library files are loaded for use in this example to provide the styling of the table:
This table loads data by Ajax. The latest data that has been loaded is shown below. This data will update automatically as any additional data is loaded.
The script used to perform the server-side processing for this table is shown below. Please note that this is just an example script using PHP. Server-side processing scripts can be written in any language, using the protocol described in the DataTables documentation.
