Horizontal Scrolling using buttons (event)?

Horizontal Scrolling using buttons (event)?

Hi.

Here is a link: https://dev.salesessentials.com/online/tools/SalesTimeUtilisationWorkSheet/datatables.html
(Note the buttons do NOT work).

It is a time sheet where the user selects certain task done during one day (there are many days that can be displayed) and the report afterwards graphs and makes suggestions....

Since there are a large number of columns I am trying to create buttons to scroll horizontally (e.g. few hours). I have looked at the generated/final source to see what I could use to scroll horizontally using buttons (aka paging) - I am out of my depth.

I also would like to go to the current time when the user select the sheet making it easier to call this worksheet a couple of time during the day to fill out the form.

I know how to use jquery to scroll, e.g. $(#someID).scrollLeft(someValue), but I have no clue doing it using datatables.

I searched the forum to find answers to this, but only found one (http://datatables.net/forums/discussion/17128/horizontal-pagination) but that answer does not give me the kick start I had hoped for ....

Please help.
Jobst
