paging.boundaryNumbers

Include (or not) the leading first and last page in the numbers.

Description

The pagination control presented by DataTables will show numbered buttons for the first page and the last page at all times (unless hidden by its responsive action), with an ellipsis between them and the number group for the current page - e.g.:

1 ... 5 6 7 ... 23

The first and last numbered buttons could be considered redundant if you have the first / last icon buttons also enabled, which they are by default. This option (paging.boundaryNumbers) of the paging control provides the ability to disable the first and last numbers buttons. When disabled, the above example would display as:

... 5 6 7 ...

The first / last and previous / next buttons can be optionally enabled / disabled around the numbered buttons group.

Type

This option can be given in the following type(s):

• boolean

Default

• Value: true

Example

new DataTable('#myTable', {
	layout: {
		bottomEnd: {
			paging: {
				boundaryNumbers: false
			}
		}
	}
});
