Hello everyone,

I'm using responsive tables with the collapse feature. Datable table used the :before selector to display the button (+). Anyway to change this with the api and use and actual button for accessibility issues?

Thanks!

    In terms of accessibility, you can tab through the table and press the return key to activate / deactivate the child rows.

    At the moment I don't think there is actually a way of using a specific button. There might be, but I can't think of its at the moment! This is the closest I could get, but the return key will activate twice, which is no use.
