How to display 'Options' in a DataTable not using DataTable Editor?

GRU119

I'm having issues finding the correct syntax to show/hide parts of a DataTable modal. Depending on which drop-down selection you make, the modal will show/hide different fields. I have found an example of what I'm looking for, but they seem to be using the DataTable Editor which uses the new '$.fn.dataTable.Editor( {...} );' instance. I would like to leverage my current code to do the same idea, but searching how to exactly do this.

I'm creating the 'option' property within my columnSet, but how would I show a drop-down option actually would show/hide modal fields?

I have a more detailed question with pictures and code examples here on Stack Overflow here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61084433/how-to-display-options-in-a-datatable-not-using-datatable-editor

I'm not clear whether you're using Editor - is that the case?

If not, we're happy to take a look, but as per the forum rules, please link to a test case - a test case that replicates the issue will ensure you'll get a quick and accurate response. Information on how to create a test case (if you aren't able to link to the page you are working on) is available here.

Hey Colin,

Thanks for the quick reply. No, we were not using the editor but trying to use the editor functionality. I think that's the big problem. I'm going through the editor documentation now and I think I'm understanding more. Thanks again for the quick reply and sorry if this was a half baked question, but still understanding dataTables.

Thanks,
Greg
