Content

The ColumnControl extension for DataTables makes it possible to put column control items in the table header and footer cells - these are termed "content types" for brevity. The content shown can be buttons, search inputs or any other type of HTML content.

ColumnControl has a number of built in content types, which are listed below. Please refer to each content type's documentation by clicking on its name for full details and configuration options. See also the ColumnControl documentation for a more general overview of how to install, configure and use ColumnControl.
