need to do to use it with your own tables is to call the
construction function: $().DataTable();. You

Multi-column ordering
On a per-column basis (i.e. order by a specific column and
then a secondary column if the data in the first column is
identical), through the
columns.orderData option.
Complex headers (rowspan and colspan)
When using tables to display data, you will often wish to
display column information in groups. DataTables fully
supports colspan and rowspan in
the table's header, assigning the required order listeners
to the TH element suitable for that column.

DOM Positioning
When customising DataTables 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 DataTables takes inspiration from the CSS 3
Advanced Layout Module and provides the
dom initialisation parameter which can be set
to indicate where you wish particular features to appear in
the DOM. You can also specify div wrapping containers (with
an id and / or class) to provide complete layout
flexibility.

Alternative Pagination
The default page control presented by DataTables (forward
and backward buttons with up to 7 page numbers in-between)
is fine for most situations, but there are cases where you
may wish to customise the options presented to the end user.
This is done through DataTables' extensible pagination
mechanism, the pagingType option.

Scroll - Vertical
This example shows the DataTables table body scrolling in the vertical direction. This can generally be seen as an alternative method to pagination for displaying a large table in a fairly small vertical area, and as such pagination has been disabled here (note that this is not mandatory, it will work just fine with pagination enabled as well!).

Scroll - Vertical, Dynamic Height
This example shows a vertically scrolling DataTable that
makes use of the CSS3 vh unit in order to
dynamically resize the viewport based on the browser window
height. The vh unit is effectively a percentage of the
browser window height. So the 50vh used in
this example is 50% of the window height. The viewport size
will update dynamically as the window is resized.

Scroll - Horizontal
DataTables has the ability to show tables with horizontal
scrolling, which is very useful for when you have a wide
table, but want to constrain it to a limited horizontal
display area. To enable x-scrolling simply set the
scrollX parameter to be whatever you want the
container wrapper's width to be (this should be 100% in
almost all cases with the width being constrained by the
container element).
Scroll - Vertical & Horizontal
In this example you can see DataTables doing both horizontal and vertical scrolling at the same time. Note also that pagination is enabled in this example, and the scrolling accounts for this.
Language - Comma decimal place
A dot (.) is used to mark the decimal place in Javascript, however, many parts of the world use a comma (,) and other characters such as the Unicode decimal separator (⎖) or a dash (-) are often used to show the decimal place in a displayed number.
