- Added new orthogonal data example
- Updated columns.data and columns.render documentation
- Reordering the manual a little
- Add note to the old orthogonal data blog post to direct people to the
new manual page
- Showing and hiding details about a row in a child row is very useful
and proven to be a popular part of DataTables. This commit provides
that ability in the new API and extends it. It also fully modularises
the child rows aspects, so it could be removed from the core without
effecting any other aspects (it may be moved into a seperate file in
future).
- This will effectively replace fnOpen, fnClose and fnIsOpen
- Added methods:
- row( selector, opts ).child()
- row( selector, opts ).child( str, class )
- row( selector, opts ).child( str, class ).show()
- row( selector, opts ).child( str, class ).hide()
- row( selector, opts ).child.show()
- row( selector, opts ).child.hide()
- row( selector, opts ).child.isShown()
- Note that unlike the old API you need to specify the data first, and
then use the show() method to show the child row. This allows the
details rows to be configured before they are actually shown.
- Additionally multiple child rows can be attached to a parent (pass
`str` (from above) as an array to use this feature. API plug-ins could
use this ability to show fully nested tables.
- Not just a string can be passed in now, but also a TR node which will
actually be used (rather than put into a nested row), any other type
of node (which will be inserted into a wrapper row/cell) or a jQuery
object.
New: The distance from the end of the current scrolling container before new data is added (with infinite scrolling) can be controlled with iScrollLoadGap (which is a numeric value in pixels).
New: Example (basic_init/scrolling_y_infinite.html) to show how infinite scrolling can be used.
Fixed: iDraw was not being incremented for a draw that did not use server-side processing.
