3 ColVis adds a button to the toolbars around DataTables which gives the end user of the table the ability to dynamically change the visibility of the columns in the table:
5 * Dynamically show and hide columns in a table
6 * Very easy integration with DataTables
7 * Ability to exclude columns from being either hidden or shown
8 * Save saving integration with DataTables
13 To use ColVis, first download DataTables ( http://datatables.net/download ) and place the unzipped ColVis package into a `extensions` directory in the DataTables package. This will allow the pages in the examples to operate correctly. To see the examples running, open the `examples` directory in your web-browser.
18 ColVis is initialised using the `C` option that it adds to DataTables' `dom` option. For example:
21 $(document).ready( function () {
22 $('#example').dataTable( {
23 "dom": 'C<"clear">lfrtip'
