Its not clear to me what the issue is. I updated the example to include select. The first table selects rows and the second selects cells:

Maybe you can update the examples to show the issue you are having.

Depends on API data I load several tablas on page. Is necessary to call each table as new instance? or can share same preferences? this is my current code

Thanks for the test case - it helps a lot to understand the issue. I made a couple changes, see if this works as you want:

I don't remember if the table variable would contain both Datatables or the last Datatable when initializing them with a single set of init options. It did seem like table only referenced the last table since the select event only worked with the second.

First I chained the events off the DataTable() init method.

Then I changed this in the key-focus event:
table.row(cell.index().row).select();

To this:
datatable.row(cell.index().row).select();

Last I commented out the select option and added the rows().deselect() to deselect all rows in the table before selecting the row clicked on. Otherwise there seems to be a race condition which doesn't allow the row to be selected.

But all of this seems overkill when you can just use the select option you have configured without using the key-focus event to manipulate the row selection. Here is the example:

Hopefully one or the other will help you do what you need.

Thank you a lot, this solves most of my problems, the last one is the selected row must be only in active table, is it possible?

kthorngren

Yes, you would use the first example then in the key-focus event use rows().deselect() to deselect the rows in all the tables followed by selecting the row clicked on. Here is the updated example:
