<i>DataTables</i> DOM positioning example
</div>
<h1>Preamble</h1>
<p>When customising <i>DataTables</i> for your own usage, you might find that the default position of the feature elements (filter input etc) is not quite to your liking. To address this issue <i>DataTables</i> takes inspiration from the CSS 3 Advanced Layout Module and provides the <b>sDom</b> initialisation parameter which can be set to indicate where you which particular features to appear in the DOM. You can also specify <b>div</b> wrapping containers (with classes) to provide complete layout flexibility. The syntax available is:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>l</b> - Length changing</li>
<li><b>f</b> - Filtering input</li>
<li><b>t</b> - The table!</li>
<li><b>i</b> - Information</li>
<li><b>p</b> - Pagination</li>
<li><b>r</b> - pRocessing</li>
<li><b><</b> and <b>></b> - div elements</li>
<li><b><"class"</b> and <b>></b> - div with a class</li>
<li>Examples: <b><"wrapper"flipt></b>, <b><lf<t>ip></b></li>
</ul>
<p>In the example below I've moved the table information to the top of the table, and all the interaction elements to the bottom, each wrapper in a container <b>div</b>.</p>
