<h1>DataTables example <span>- Object data source</span></h1>
<div class="info">
<p>The default data format that DataTables expects for server-side processing is a 2D array of data
(rows by columns). However, this is often not flexible enough for either the server-side environment,
or you might want to convey more information in the data source than is necessary to show in the table
(row IDs from the database for example). For these situations DataTables supports the reading of data
for objects as well as arrays.</p>
<p>In this example the server responds with an array of objects, where DataTables will look up and use
each property that is specified by the <a href="//datatables.net/init/columns.data"><code class=
"option" title="Initialisation option">columns.data</code></a> property given for each column.</p>

<table id="example" class="display" cellspacing="0" width="100%">

<p>The Javascript shown below is used to initialise the table shown in this example:</p>
<pre class="brush: js;">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').dataTable( {
&quot;processing&quot;: true,
&quot;serverSide&quot;: true,
&quot;ajax&quot;: &quot;scripts/objects.php&quot;,

{ &quot;data&quot;: &quot;last_name&quot; },

{ &quot;data&quot;: &quot;office&quot; },
{ &quot;data&quot;: &quot;start_date&quot; },
{ &quot;data&quot;: &quot;salary&quot; }
]
} );
} );
</pre>
<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>

<p>The HTML shown below is the raw HTML table element, before it has been enhanced by
DataTables:</p>

<div class="css">

<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>
<pre class="brush: js;">
