Adding columns to empty table

Dawiss

Is it possible to dynamically add columns to empty table, no columns in thead, in 1.10 version?

You can do this with jQuery:

var table = $('#myTable');

addColumn(table, 'Name');
addColumn(table, 'Address');
addColumn(table, 'Phone');

//Note! Assumes that you have a single row
//     in your thead.
function addColumn( table, title
{
    table.find('thead tr').append('<th>' + title + '</th>');
}

Thank you rhino for the answer, but I was interested if it's possible using Datatable 1.10 API or datatables options?

AFAIK, DataTables has no built-in support for adding columns
