Show xx entries on tabs

biggrecian

I'm really struggling to add the Show XX entries drop down on the left hand side of the Tabs

As on http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/api/tabs_and_scrolling.html would want the show XX of entries to be left of the search option as on http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/basic_init/zero_config.html

Is this possible?

Tried adding
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#tbl_id').dataTable({
"aLengthMenu": [[25, 50, 75, -1], [25, 50, 75, "All"]],
"iDisplayLength": 25
});
} );

but with no avail - any pointers?

Or how to at least expand the length of the table - I know how to do it on the normal example just not on the tabbed version.
