I am having trouble following API documentation.

Hi,

I am trying to find the number of rows my datatable contains.

@allan,

oTable.fnSettings().fnRecordsTotal() should do it.
oTable.fnSettings().fnRecordsDisplay() will give you the number after filtering has occurred.

This is what i found in the forum discussions. But i just want to check the location where i can see all the methods/functions that i can use on datatable API.

And, i am using latest release of datatable API and i am using this to get the number of rows:

table = $("#pagination").DataTable();

var data = table.fnSettings().fnRecordsTotal();

But still no luck.

@Allan,

Could you please let me know, how i could get row count for datatables? And please provide me the links where i can access proper documentation for all the API methods.

Thanks!

the number of rows my datatable contains.

Use page.info(). It is a public API (unlike the other ones you mention which are private and shouldn't be used) and has the information you request.

Click "Reference" and then "Api" in the site navigation on the left :-).
