DataTables releases feed http://www.datatables.net/ en-us Software release information for DataTables and its extensions DataTables 3.0.0-beta.2 released The second in the beta releases for DataTables 3, with fixes based on feedback (thank you to everyone who has tried it out so far) and my own testing. This release also has improved accessibility for scrolling tables, and better time zone support for date/time rendering.

New

  • Improved timezone support for date and time renderers - time zone is not shifted when displaying a date / time (i.e. the displayed timezone matches the input).
  • Accessability for scrolling tables. Roles are assigned allowing screenreaders such as NVDA to see a scrolling table as a single table

Fixes

  • If the table holds no data for the page when being drawn and paging is held (i.e. the rows have been deleted), then the paging will "rewind" to the previous page now.
  • Adding Dom.prototype.sort() method to allow an external request to reorder elements in document order (required for RowReorder).
  • Types - correct the Api interface name in the build file
  • Correct callback function types for the initialisation object
  • Don't mix UTC and timezone processing. It results in offsets where they aren't wanted.
  • CSS variable for vertical align in the header wasn't applied correctly
  • Dark mode for page length <select>
  • Keyboard tabbing will no longer land on hidden elements in a scrolling table
  • Correction to background for processing indicator

DataTables 2.3.8 released While DataTables 3 development has been the primary focus of late, there have still been a few patches to DataTables 2 (some of them backports from DT3), which are collected here in this release.

Fixes

  • If the table holds no data for the page when being drawn and paging is held (i.e. the rows have been deleted), then the paging will "rewind" to the previous page now.
  • Improved timezone support for date and time renderers - time zone is not shifted when displaying a date / time (i.e. the displayed timezone matches the input).
  • Don't mix UTC and timezone processing. It results in offsets where they aren't wanted.
  • Keyboard tabbing will no longer land on hidden elements in a scrolling table
  • Multi-line html elements could still cause issues for column sizing
  • XHTML fix for when scrolling is enabled
  • Accessability - remove the -tag tfoot element if it is empty
  • Don't include <template> or `` tags in the sizing table
  • jQuery UI styling when used with FixedHeader - the header would have slightly different styling when floating (bold and decreased padding)
