how to get selected row from form button?

kytan

How do i get selected rows from the grid on my form button?
when i selected a few rows on the grid and click on a button like "Lookup", i am able to do an ajax post call to my php code but where do i get the selected row data on my php code?

this is my ajax call
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
'headers': {'X-CSRF-TOKEN': 'uTKwGdKrCYoOAL06imtREZ7WJUk839kRUwKcSxFa'},
data: $(this).serialize(),
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert("error" + jqXHR + " : " + textStatus + " : " + errorThrown);
},
url: '/lookup/2'
})

$data = Input::all();
when i do a var_dump( $data );
i get empty.

it simple if you have the selection plugin. You can see it work here: http://live.datatables.net/zamoqohu/1/edit

$(document).ready( function () {
  
  // datatable
  var table = $('#example').DataTable( {
        select: {
            style: 'multi'
        }
    });
  
// button event handler for getting the data for selected rows.
  $("#btnGetData").click(function() {
    
     var selData =   table.rows(".selected").data();
    alert(selData.length);
  });
  
} );

Event better is to use the selected option of the selector-modifier option:

table.rows( { selected: true } ).data();

That removes any dependence on the DOM.

See also the manual for this information.
