Own input at generated div

handbuch

Hi, first a pic of my table: http://yfrog.com/ncdropdownp

How can i get the dropdown into the same div like the filter/search is? where the square is?

thats my table:

oTable = $("#example").dataTable( {
"bPaginate": false,
"bDestroy": true,
"sAjaxSource": "files/php/getJSON.php",
"aoColumnDefs": [{
"fnRender": function ( oObj ) {
return \'\';
i++;
},
"aTargets": [ 0 ]
}]
});

The best way to do this would be to use the sDom feature and add a div to the toolbar, then place your dropdown element inside it. See my post here for some pages with details and an example.

does .html rly not support multiline? like $("div.action").html("we") works but not
$("div.action").html(asd
asd)? hmm sad but thanks it works :)

That's a limitation of Javascript rather than jQuery. Multiline strings in Javascript are a bit of a nightmare to be honest - something that I'd really like to see addressed in future versions of the specification.

What you can do is put a slash just before the new line, or break it into multiple strings with the "+" contatination operator.
