Is there a way to reorder columns runtime?

kexx

I'm looking for the ColReorder functionality through the API (means controlled by me in javascript). Currently the only way to do it is by re-initializing the entire datatables object, which works ok, but requires extra presentation logic and looks not so great in the user's perspective. I'm able to show/hide columns dynamically, but reordering seems impossible without re-initialization. Any ideas?

ColReorder has a fnOrder() API method which allows programmatic reordering. Is that what you are looking for?
