Placement of show and hide columns next to information div
Placement of show and hide columns next to information div

Hi -
I'm trying to place the "Showing _TOTAL_ entries" control (the "i" information div) top right above the data table and then place a custom columns select box to its left (see http://www.datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/api/show_hide.html for the show/hide columns example).
The sDom property won't work because it creates DOM elements on the fly and the select box is already hard-coded on the page.
How to gain finer control over the placement of DOM elements?
