RowGroup: Adding a button

RowGroup: Adding a button

Hi all.
I'm looking for a way to add a button to the rowGroup row. I can add text using the startRender, but don't seem to be able to add a button.
Has anyone done this? If so, how did you do it? I've got a decent understanding of JS and of datatables, but am not sure how to do this.
Thanks in advance.

    You should be able to add a button using rowGroup.startRender. Just have it return the HTML needed:

    $('#myTable').DataTable( {
    rowGroup: {
        startRender: function ( rows, group ) {
            return '... <button>...</button>';
        }
    }
} );

    And have a suitable jQuery event listener for the button.

    Thanks Allan. I finally figured that out and it works well.

    I've another question and will post it separately.
    Thanks for responding

    FYI: I tried to click on one of the payment amounts for full access to forum and it didn't work. Will try again today. I'd gladly support your effort in this.
