Weired behaviour of jquery datatables pulgin's fixed column in IE 9
Weired behaviour of jquery datatables pulgin's fixed column in IE 9
I am using jquery ui tabs to display two grids side by side within same div. Grid are displayed using jquery datatables plugin.
Recently i have added the feature of fixed columns in both of my grids, that makes IE 9 behave weirdly at random.
This behavior happen at total random but on one of the two grids not on both. IE 9 display fixed column portion over the horizontal scroll-bar
.
Funny thing is if you sort out the affected table or enter some characters in search textbox, this overlapping portion got fixed automatically.
I search on it and came to know that draw() function is called on these actions so i tried to call this function manually on tab selection event but that didn't solve the problem.
Below is the JS code for tab selection event:
`$('#divEAMountDismountGridsTabs, #CurrentSpec').tabs(
{
select: function(event, ui)
{
// Do stuff here
var tempDismount = $('#tblDismountAtt').DataTable();
tempDismount.draw(false);
var tempCurrentSpec = $('#tblCurrentSpec1').DataTable();
tempCurrentSpec.draw(false);
}
});`
Below is the JS i write on datatable initialization(both grids got the same attributes so i am just copying the initialization of first grid).
var tableDismountAtt = $('#tblDismountAtt').dataTable(
{
"bFilter": true,
"bInfo": false,
"bDestroy": true,
"bwidth": '100%',
//"sDom": '<"top"f>',
'iDisplayLength':5000,
"order": [[2, "asc"]],
dom: "Cfrtip",
scrollY: "140px",
scrollX: "100%",
paging: false,
scrollCollapse: true,
"aoColumnDefs" : [
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 0 ] , "width": "80px"}, //Switch to Dismount
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 1 ], "width": "80px"}, //Parts Status
{'bSortable' : true, 'aTargets' : [ 2 ], "width": "80px"}, //Sales Code
{'bSortable' : true, 'aTargets' : [ 3 ] , "width": "60px"}, //Price
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 4 ], "width": "60px"}, //Currency
{'bSortable' : true, 'aTargets' : [ 5 ], "width": "150px"}, //Sales Cod Description
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 6 ], "width": "80px"}, //Quantity
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 7 ], "width": "380px"}, //Remarks
{'bSortable' : true, 'aTargets' : [ 8 ], "width": "80px"}, // PSO Ref No.
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 9 ], "width": "150px"}, //Model Sub Name
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 10 ] , "width": "80px"}, //Value
{'bSortable' : false, 'aTargets' : [ 11 ], "width": "150px"}, //Date
{'bSortable' : true, 'aTargets' : [ 12 ]},
{'bSortable' : true, 'aTargets' : [ 13 ]},
{'bSortable' : true, 'aTargets' : [ 14 ]}
]
});

new $.fn.dataTable.FixedColumns( tableDismountAtt, {leftColumns: 6, heightMatch:'auto'});
