Set column width for specific columns.

Glyndwr

I am trying to set the width of a column. I have reviewed: https://datatables.net/reference/option/columns.width and then created this code: http://live.datatables.net/tipupiba/1/edit which is not setting the column width.

Kind regards,

Glyn

Your example is giving this error in the browser's console.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'mData' of undefined

The reason is you are using columns.data but have defined it for only one column. Changing the example to use columnDefs and columnDefs.targets removes the error and the Datatable now loads correctly.

Hi Kevin,

Thank you very much for your help. Unfortunately the column width is still not being set.

Looks like the column width is being set.

Try clicking the upward right arrow at the top of the Output tab.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for that. This works. I now have a more complex issue that I will create a new sample and post for.

Kind regards,
