<td class="label-cell">Frozen yogurt</td>
<td class="numeric-cell">159</td>
...
<td class="tablet-only">I like it!</td>

Data Table App Methods
In case you add data table dynamically and you need such selecting rows or switching headers logic you need to init it manually. Let’s look at related app methods to work with data table:
app.dataTable.create(parameters)- create Data Table instance
- parameters - object. Object with data table parameters
Method returns created Data Table’s instance
app.dataTable.destroy(el)- destroy Data Table instance
- el - HTMLElement or string (with CSS Selector) or object. Data Table element or Data Table instance to destroy.
app.dataTable.get(el)- get Data Table instance by HTML element
- el - HTMLElement or string (with CSS Selector). Data Table element.
Method returns Data Table’s instance
Data Table Parameters
Now let’s look at list of available parameters we need to create Data Table:
Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
el | HTMLElement | Data Table element. Can be useful if you already have Data Table element in your HTML and want to create new instance using this element |
