Number helper different based on data

dougguthrie

I have a column where the value can either be a percentage or a number. The percentage will be any number <= 100. Is it possible to pick between two renderers, percentage and number, based on the data? I've tried the following without any luck:

render: function( data, type, row ) {
    if ( data <= 100 ) {
        return $.fn.dataTable.render.number( '', '.', 2, '', '%' )
    } else {
        return $.fn.dataTable.render.number( ',', '.', 0 )
    }
}

Just learned this myself

render: function( data, type, row ) {
    if ( data <= 100 ) {
        return $.fn.dataTable.render.number( '', '.', 2, '', '%' ).display(data);
    } else {
        return $.fn.dataTable.render.number( ',', '.', 0 ).display(data);
    }
}
