Is there anyway I can control sort and paging based on user confirmation?

vin12 · January 2017

Hi,

I would like to control(perform or not to perform) sort and page events based on user confirmation.

I would like to trigger a user confirmation dialog based on user input Yes/No event should continue/stop.

Is there anyway I can achieve this using Datatable API version "1.10.9".

Thanks in advance,
Vin.

What would be the expected result of "stopping" a sort?

Hi,

Not sure if I am able to answer your question, but I if user selects no in the confirmation dialog sort operation should not be performed.

I have tried the following but without success.

$('#exampleTable th').click(function(e) {
if(!false){//consider this false from confirmation dialog
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
}
});

Thanks for your response!

Regards,
Vin.
