<div class="info">
|
|
36
|
<p>DataTables has the ability to read data from virtually any JSON data source that can be obtained by
|
|
37
|
Ajax. This can be done, in its most simple form, by setting the <a href=
|
|
38
|
"//datatables.net/reference/option/ajax"><code class="option" title=
|
|
39
|
"DataTables initialisation option">ajax<span>DT</span></code></a> option to the address of the JSON
|
|
40
|
data source.</p>
|
|
41
|
|
|
42
|
<p>The <a href="//datatables.net/reference/option/ajax"><code class="option" title=
|
|
43
|
"DataTables initialisation option">ajax<span>DT</span></code></a> option also allows for more advanced
|
|
44
|
configuration such as altering how the Ajax request is made. See the <a href=
|
|
45
|
"//datatables.net/reference/option/ajax"><code class="option" title=
|
|
46
|
"DataTables initialisation option">ajax<span>DT</span></code></a> documentation or the other Ajax
|
|
47
|
examples for DataTables for further information.</p>
|
|
48
|
|
|
49
|
<p>By default DataTables will assume that an array data source is to be used and will read the
|
|
50
|
information to be displayed in each column from the row's array using the column index, making working
|
|
51
|
with arrays very simple (note that this can be changed, or objects used may using the <a href=
|
|
52
|
"//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data"><code class="option" title=
|
|
53
|
"DataTables initialisation option">columns.data<span>DT</span></code></a> option, shown in other
|
|
54
|
examples).</p>
|
|
55
|
|
|
56
|
<p>The example below shows DataTables loading data for a table from arrays as the data source, where
|
|
57
|
the structure of the row's data source in this example is:</p>
