How to hide a control button

cbazan

Hi, I can hide the control show <number> records at top of my table?
I'm using the scroller option but do not want that control is deployed.

Thank you

Not sure, but I think you're talking about the info setting? E.g. you don't want "Showing 1 to 10 of 57 entries" to show up? If so, then disable it like:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#example').DataTable( {
        "info":     false
    } );
} );

Hi JoshuaH, no, I'm talking about Show <n> entries control at the upper left corner of the table.

Ah, then you want to make it so the user can't change the number of rows being shown: https://datatables.net/reference/option/lengthChange

$('#example').dataTable( {
  "lengthChange": false
} );

Hi JoshuaH, that's exactly what I need.

Thanks
