</table></body></html>DataTables with Bootstrap's table-responsive always has small x-overflow
SOLUTION
You need to use a container. Wrap your markup in a div with class container or container-fluid.
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="table-responsive">
<table class="table data-table">
<thead>
...
</thead>
<tbody>
...
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
</div>
Also add the following CSS rule:
.table-responsive {
overflow-x: inherit;
}
DEMO
See this jsFiddle for code and demonstration.
jQuery datatable gets broken when initialized while being hidden
You can make responsive recalc() the columns when a collapsible panel is shown...
var $table = $('#YourTableId');
//init the table
$table.dataTable({ "responsive" : true });
//bind to boostrap panel shown event and recalc
$table.parent().closest('.panel-collapse').on('shown.bs.collapse', function () {
$table.DataTable().columns().responsive.recalc();
});
Bootstrap Datatables Javascript - Lengthmenu and export buttons too smooshed against each other - want to create line break between the two
If I understood you correctly, I only added this CSS rule:
.dataTables_length {
position: relative;
float: none !important;
text-align: center;
}
Obviously, if you don't want the Show [Number] Entries horizontally centered, just remove text-align: center;
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').DataTable({
"lengthMenu": [10, 25, 50, 75, 100],
dom: '<l>Bfrtip',
"columnDefs": [{
"targets": [],
"visible": false,
"searchable": false
},
{
"targets": [],
"visible": false
}
],
buttons: [{
extend: 'copyHtml5',
exportOptions: {
columns: ':visible',
format: {
body: function(data, row, column, node) {
var text = node.textContent;
return column === 10 ? text.replace(/Open$/, '').trim() : data;
}
}
}
},
{
extend: 'excelHtml5',
exportOptions: {
columns: ':visible',
format: {
body: function(data, row, column, node) {
var text = node.textContent;
return column === 10 ? text.replace(/Open$/, '').trim() : data;
}
}
}
},
{
extend: 'csvHtml5',
exportOptions: {
columns: ':visible',
format: {
body: function(data, row, column, node) {
var text = node.textContent;
return column === 10 ? text.replace(/Open$/, '').trim() : data;
}
}
}
},
{
extend: 'pdfHtml5',
orientation: 'landscape',
exportOptions: {
columns: ':visible',
format: {
body: function(data, row, column, node) {
var text = node.textContent;
return column === 10 ? text.replace(/Open$/, '').trim() : data;
}
}
}
},
'colvis'
]
});
});div.dt-button-collection {
width: 215px;
}
.display.dataTable {
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
}
.modal {
max-width: 1000px;
margin: 2rem auto;
}
td.none {

}
div.dt-buttons {

</table>Datatable Column Mis-Alignment
This answer is actually from user andrewJames. He gave a possible solution in the comments that worked, but is declining to make it the solution.
The reason the column headers were misaligned when the data loaded while the focus was on another tab is that DataTables needs a visible viewport to calculate column widths. andrewJames's suggestion, which I tried with success was to add a table redraw to the tab on an oblick event.
Bootstrap's version of an onlick event for a navtab is actually the "shown.bs.tab" event. Here is my implementation of the solution:
/**
* When a tab is clicked.
*/
$(document).on('shown.bs.tab', '.dashboard-nav-link', function(e){
if(e.target.id == 'datatables_tab')
table.draw('page');
});
Datatable not working correctly with boostrap
Try to add all the required css and js for the outcome.
