<h1>DataTables example <span>Ajax data source (arrays)</span></h1>
<div class="info">
<p>DataTables has the ability to read data from virtually any JSON data source that can be obtained by
Ajax. This can be done, in its most simple form, by setting the <a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/option/ajax"><code class="option" title=
"DataTables initialisation option">ajax<span>DT</span></code></a> option to the address of the JSON
data source.</p>
<p>The <a href="//datatables.net/reference/option/ajax"><code class="option" title=
"DataTables initialisation option">ajax<span>DT</span></code></a> option also allows for more advanced
configuration such as altering how the Ajax request is made. See the <a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/option/ajax"><code class="option" title=
"DataTables initialisation option">ajax<span>DT</span></code></a> documentation or the other Ajax
examples for DataTables for further information.</p>
<p>By default DataTables will assume that an array data source is to be used and will read the
information to be displayed in each column from the row's array using the column index, making working
with arrays very simple (note that this can be changed, or objects used may using the <a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data"><code class="option" title=
"DataTables initialisation option">columns.data<span>DT</span></code></a> option, shown in other
examples).</p>
<p>The example below shows DataTables loading data for a table from arrays as the data source, where
the structure of the row's data source in this example is:</p>
<pre>
<code class="multiline">[
"Tiger Nixon",
"System Architect",
"Edinburgh",
"5421",
"2011/04/25",
"$3,120"
]
</code>
</pre>
</div>
<table id="example" class="display" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Position</th>
<th>Office</th>
<th>Extn.</th>
<th>Start date</th>
<th>Salary</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Position</th>
<th>Office</th>
<th>Extn.</th>
<th>Start date</th>
<th>Salary</th>
</tr>
</tfoot>
</table>
<ul class="tabs">
<li class="active">Javascript</li>

<li>CSS</li>
<li>Ajax</li>
<li>Server-side script</li>
</ul>
<div class="tabs">
<div class="js">
<p>The Javascript shown below is used to initialise the table shown in this
example:</p><code class="multiline brush: js;">$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').dataTable( {
&quot;ajax&quot;: &quot;data/arrays.txt&quot;
} );
} );</code>
<p>In addition to the above code, the following Javascript library files are loaded for use in this
example:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="../../media/js/jquery.js">../../media/js/jquery.js</a></li>
<li><a href="../../media/js/jquery.dataTables.js">../../media/js/jquery.dataTables.js</a></li>

<div class="table">
<p>The HTML shown below is the raw HTML table element, before it has been enhanced by
DataTables:</p>
</div>
<div class="css">
<div>
<p>This example uses a little bit of additional CSS beyond what is loaded from the library
files (below), in order to correctly display the table. The additional CSS used is shown
below:</p><code class="multiline brush: js;"></code>
</div>
<p>The following CSS library files are loaded for use in this example to provide the styling of the
table:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href=
"../../media/css/jquery.dataTables.css">../../media/css/jquery.dataTables.css</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="ajax">
<p>This table loads data by Ajax. The latest data that has been loaded is shown below. This data
will update automatically as any additional data is loaded.</p>
</div>
<div class="php">
<p>The script used to perform the server-side processing for this table is shown below. Please note
that this is just an example script using PHP. Server-side processing scripts can be written in any
language, using <a href="//datatables.net/manual/server-side">the protocol described in the
DataTables documentation</a>.</p>
