How are you selecting the row?

This example uses the Select Extension with checkboxes:

I want something like this:
https://www.gyrocode.com/projects/jquery-datatables-checkboxes/
also adding I am using inline editing.

Ok, you can use Gyrocode's checkboxes plugin. It uses the Select extension. Inline editing will work with Gyrocodes extension.

You will want to exclude the checkbox column from inline editing like this example:

`

<

script>
$(document).ready(function()
{

            var editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor( {
                table: '#data_table',
                idSrc:  'id',
                fields: [

                    {name: 'id' },
                    {name: 'company_name' },
                    {name: 'status'  },
                    {name: 'created_at' },
                    {name: 'updated_at'  }
                    // etc
                ]
            } );
              $('#data_table').on( 'click', 'tbody td:not(:first-child, :nth-child(2), :nth-child(5), :nth-child(6))', function () {

                editor.inline( this);
                 // select: true;
            } );
           client_table = $('#data_table').DataTable( {
                // dom: "Bfrtip",
                columns: [
                    { data: 'multi_id' },
                    { data: 'id' },
                    { data: 'company_name' , className: 'editable'},
                    { data: 'status' , className: 'editable'},
                    { data: 'created_at' },
                    { data: 'updated_at' }

                ],

                select: {
                   style: 'multi'
                }
            } );

           } );`

I want a function that, if I click on a column for edit, the full row will be selected and also I want a invisible checkbox for marking if the row is being selected, so basically if I click on the editable column the corresponding checkbox will the checked. I want this function for update all the edited rows by click on single update button, can you help me here, how I can edit m code for this? and thank u.
