FixedHeader Plugin Initialize

[dietcheeseParticipant Posts: 5]

Hi,

I am attempting to use the FixedHeader plugin that comes with Metronic, on the ajax datatable seen

here

The table without fixedHeader is working fine and I have correctly included /global/plugins/datatables/extensions/FixedHeader/js/dataTables.fixedHeader.js.

However, I am not sure where to put the javascript that initializes the plugin.  For example, this does not work:

var handleRecords = function () {

var grid = new Datatable();

new $.fn.dataTable.FixedHeader( grid  );

}

I have also tried various permutation of the command, as well as putting it in the /global/scripts/datatable.js file.

Where and how should I initialize the FixedHeader plugin to get this working?

Thanks,
DC

Hi :),

To integrate the scroller extension with ajax datatables you will need to follow below steps:

1) Sure you added required css and js files

2) Initialize the datatable instance with “scrollY”: “300” and “deferRender”: true parameters

var grid = new Datatable();

grid.init({
src: $(“#datatable_ajax”),
…………………….
dataTable: {
……………..
“bStateSave”: true, // save datatable state(pagination, sort, etc) in cookie.
“scrollY”: “300”,
“deferRender”: true,
……………..
}
});

If you need any further assistance please let us know.

Thanks.

Please read my initial post.

I am trying to use the FixedHeader plugin, not the scroller plugin.
