Force Processing On

w2chaudh

Hi,

Is there a way to force the processing indicator on/off when your not using server-side processing. I'm populating my table with JavaScript array data and there is a delay before the table begins to populate. So, basically I'd like to do this:

processingIndicator.on();

delay();

processingIndicator.off();

Try this plug-in.

Hi,

I've already tried this plugin but it's a legacy plugin and changing DataTables constructor to use a lowercase d (to make it work) breaks other functionality I have. The line of code it breaks is:

table.clear().rows.add(data).draw();

Also, the indicator didn't work.

You can use both forms:

var newApi = $('#myTable').DataTable( ... );
var oldApi = $('#myTable').dataTable();

You could also rewrite the plug-in to work for the 1.10 style API.
