hi ,
i have a datatable which i then sometime add content to and redraw it

anyay i want to go back to the page the user have been looking at in the datatable
so 2 questions:

1. how can i get the page the user is in? or how do i bind the the event of paging? so i can store the page manualy

2. i found a function in your api to go the next and previous page but it dosnt get an int.
is there anyway to jump to a certain page? and not just the next page?

thank you

    Hi Guy,

    1. There isn't a way to get the page number as such - but it's fairly easy to calculate. The following information is available:

    [code]
    var oSettings = oTable.fnSettings();
    oSettings.fnRecordsTotal() // Number of records before filtering
    oSettings.fnRecordsDisplay() // Number of records in set after filtering
    oSettings.fnDisplayEnd() // End index
    oSettings._iDisplayStart // Start index
    oSettings._iDisplayLength // length
    [/code]

    2. Again not really I'm afraid. Using the above it would be possible to calculate, not there isn't a simple API function available at this time which will just take a page parameter. Of course if you fancy writing one, I'll certainly put it up on the site!
