Disable sorting when table has only one row?

jeffw

Is there a way to prevent sortable headers when there's only one row in the table? By default it lets you still sort the columns.

thanks,

Jeff

No - features such as that cannot currently be enabled and disabled on-the-fly. You could modify DataTables to do it easily enough, or use fnDrawCallback and fnSortListener (remove and detach the listeners whenever the number of rows are updated), but there is no built in way of doing that.

Thanks Allan. I can do what I need by calling dataTables only when there are more than 2 rows in the table (1 header, 1 data).
