The horizontal fill type will copy the data from the first column in the selected cells to the other cells horizontally. This option sets the message that will be shown when this fill type is available.

The full fill type will copy the data from the cell where the fill originated to all other cells. This option sets the message that will be shown when this fill type is available (which is always!).

DataTables' built in number formatter (formatNumber) is used to format large numbers that are used in the table information. By default a comma is used, but this can be trivially changed to any other character you wish with this parameter, suitable for any locality, or set to an empty string if you do not which to have a thousands separator character. Please note that unlike the language.decimal option, the thousands separator option is used for output of information only (specifically the info option). Changing it does not effect how DataTables reads numeric data.

HTML has a placeholder attribute for input type="text" elements to provide informational text for an input control when it has no value. This parameter can be used to set a value for the placeholder attribute in a DataTable's search input. Note that it is possible to override this option on a per-control basis with the search feature for layout.
