  Got it figured out, it was a 2 step process:

  1. Include the following code in the datatables call at page bottom:

     $('#MYTABLEID').DataTable({
         // set DOM to also place info (i) at top; i=info, f=dropdown pagefilter, l=search, p=pagination
         "dom": '<"top"ifl<"clear">>rt<"bottom"ip<"clear">>',
     

  2. Include the extra CSS listed at https://datatables.net/examples/advanced_init/dom_multiple_elements.html

     div.dataTables_length {
         padding-left: 2em;
         }
         div.dataTables_length,
         div.dataTables_filter {
             padding-top: 0.55em;
         }
     

  Now it works like a charm! Thank you!
