  DataTables won't organise it into individual pages. That's nothing to do with DataTables, which is just a table display library.
  
  You probably want to use a server-side template script or something for that, but as I say, it is outside the scope of DataTables itself. Once you've got the HTML pages, just run DataTables on them :-)

  Thanks for your help, Allan - I think I've got you.
  
  Say, I use a cms like wordpress or drupal to create the top pages, say plates starting with AK08G - I could then insert a DataTable onto that page, that queried the entire database for these plates and displayed them there?
  
  Am I barking up the right tree?
  
  Cheers, John

  Basically yes you could do that. I doubt using a CMS will be optimal in terms of performance of the site, but that might not be an issue depending on a number of factors (you might be quite comfortable using a CMS for example!).
