No he meant, sDom: '<"top"Bflp>rt<"bottom"i><"clear">' for instance if you want the buttons on top of the table.

looks like the problem was down to the certificate on the site. this has since been updated ;-)

Put this in customize will work for page numbers: doc['footer']=(function(page, pages) { return { columns: [ 'Left part of footer', { alignment: 'right', text: [ { text: page.toString(), italics: true }, ' of ', { text: pages.toString(), italics: true } ] } ], margin: [10, 0] } });

ugg never mind and thanks. i was inspecting the page in chrome, and i guess it uses user-agent to hide those buttons

Thanks for your question - however, per the forum rules can you link to a test case showing the issue please. This will allow the issue to be debugged. Information on how to create a test page, if you can't provide a link to your own page can be found here. Thanks, Allan

And if I am still using DataTools? This is working perfectly on my other sites with me just including the dataTable-tools in the class of the table.

This is a known issue at the moment and I'm afraid complex headers are not supported for the export functions at this time. Allan

is there any way wherein I can attach export event to any button placed some where else on the page? You can place the Buttons anywhere you want using the buttons().container() method and a little jQuery, but the export functions used by Buttons are not currently publicly exposed. Allan

Thank you very much, I missed that functionality

Use the "Buttons" extension. http://datatables.net/extensions/buttons/
