47 <h1>ColVis example
<span>Two tables with shared controls
</span></h1>
50 <p>This example shows how the DataTables API can be used with ColVis to use a single ColVis control to effect other tables. This is done by applying ColVis to the
51 first table and then listening for the
<a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/event/column-visibility"><code class=
"event" title=
52 "DataTables event">column-visibility
<span>DT
</span></code></a> event and updating all other tables when triggered.
</p>
54 <p>This example makes use of the
<a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/api/tables()"><code class=
"api" title=
55 "DataTables API method">tables()
<span>DT
</span></code></a> and
<a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/api/table()"><code class=
"api" title=
56 "DataTables API method">table()
<span>DT
</span></code></a> methods for working with multiple tables, and also initialised ColVis using the
<code>new
57 $.fn.dataTable.ColVis();
</code> operator.

267 <p>The Javascript shown below is used to initialise the table shown in this example:
</p><code class=

268 var tables = $('table.display').DataTable( {
272 // When the column visibility changes on the firs table, also change it on

279 var colvis = new $.fn.dataTable.ColVis( tables.table(
0) );
280 $( colvis.button() ).insertAfter('div.info');
283 <p>In addition to the above code, the following Javascript library files are loaded for use in this example:
</p>

293 <p>The HTML shown below is the raw HTML table element, before it has been enhanced by DataTables:

298 <p>This example uses a little bit of additional CSS beyond what is loaded from the library files (below), in order to correctly display the table. The
299 additional CSS used is shown below:
