Data Tables

Data tables organize and display information in a structured manner, allowing for easy sorting, filtering, and analysis. They support efficient data management and clear presentation.

DataTables is a powerful jQuery plugin used to enhance HTML tables with features like pagination, filtering, and sorting. Here's a basic guide to getting started with DataTables:

Step 1: Include DataTables CSS and JS files

You need to include the DataTables CSS and JavaScript files in your HTML file. You can use the following CDN links:

				
					
<!-- DataTables CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.11.5/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css">

				
					<!-- jQuery -->
    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js"></script>
    <!-- DataTables JS -->
    <script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.11.5/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>

Step 2: Create an HTML table

Create a table in your HTML file. Ensure your table has a header and body:

				
					<table id="example" class="display" style="width:100%">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Position</th>
            <th>Office</th>
            <th>Age</th>
            <th>Start date</th>
            <th>Salary</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>Tiger Nixon</td>
            <td>System Architect</td>
            <td>Edinburgh</td>
            <td>61</td>
            <td>2011/04/25</td>
            <td>$320,800</td>
        </tr>
        <!-- Add more rows as needed -->
    </tbody>
</table>

Step 3: Initialize DataTables

Once your table is set up, you need to initialize DataTables using jQuery:

				
					<script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#example').DataTable();
    });
</script>
