[newbie] table not working??

Dorac

Hey everyone im very new to jquery and datatables.

Here is my class.

this is in the header and both jquery and datatable scripts have been included

[code]

$(document).ready( function() {
$('#table_id').dataTable();
}




Column 1
Column 2
etc




Row 1 Data 1
Row 1 Data 2
etc


Row 2 Data 1
Row 2 Data 2
etc




[/code]

the "media" folder is also included and all links are linking properly.

i have no clue why this isnt working.

any help is appreciated.

thanks
Dorac

You are missing some paranteces and the script block should be put inside some script tags.

Like so:

[code]

$(document).ready( function() {
$('#table_id').dataTable();
});




Column 1
Column 2
etc




Row 1 Data 1
Row 1 Data 2
etc


Row 2 Data 1
Row 2 Data 2
etc



[/code]

Unfortunately thats not it. Those parts I cropped from a couple of pages. The parenteces you referred to wasn't needed from how my code is, I include a custom.js file that contains all my js for jquery. Here is the complete code with script parenteces etc and still not working.

[code]










$(document).ready( function() {
$('#table_id').dataTable();
});









Column 1
Column 2
etc




Row 1 Data 1
Row 1 Data 2
etc


Row 2 Data 1
Row 2 Data 2
etc






[/code]

also please note the '.JS.' and '.CSS.' in my include paths are php code that includes just the path to the file.

Still need help :(

Thanks

Dorac: then I would doublecheck your parths to the JS in the HEAD. The previous code that I've corrected worked for me.
