New Button equivalent to tabletools download?
I have been using tabletools to download a zip file of data described by a table. Basically think of a list of things in a table, each row represents an underlying file. Hit the "download button" and I deliver a zip of those files to you.
This is what it looked like in tabletools.
tableTools: {
sSwfPath: "/assets/dataTables/extras/swf/copy_csv_xls_pdf.swf"
aButtons: [
{
sExtends: "download"
sButtonText: "Download All Things"
sUrl: "things/zip"
}
]
}
In the new Buttons extension, I don't see such a generic "download" button, just the csv, pdf, xls buttons. What can I use in the new Buttons extension to get the same functionality I got from extending download??
Thanks!

The download button would need to be reformed to work with Buttons. There is custom button documentation available if you want to give it a go, otherwise I'll take a look as time allows.

Ah, bummer. I don't think I have the knowledge to put that together, but looking forward to it if you do end up building it. Thanks.
I am also using the TableTools Download plugin, and would like to move over to using Buttons.
I will try to modify the Download plugin to work with buttons.
If anyone has given this a go or has advice, please shout.
