Row details can be done easier

Hallo Allan,

I used the row details example for giving more details on my data.
https://datatables.net/examples/api/row_details.html

This can be done a little bit easier, with the advantage of passing through less initial data to datatables

in ruby on rails is this referring to the "show" section of a controller. for rendering a show pages without layout in rails, you just do render :show, :layout => false

    function virtual_aliases_show ( d ) {
        return '<div id="row_'+d.id+'"></div>';
    };

    function virtual_aliases_load_show (d) {
        $('#row_' + d.id).load('/virtual_aliases/'+d.id+'.html');
    };

    $('#virtual_aliases tbody').on('click', 'td.details-control', function () {
        var tr = $(this).closest('tr');
        var row = virtual_aliases.row( tr );
 
        if ( row.child.isShown() ) {
            // This row is already open - close it
            row.child.hide();
            tr.removeClass('shown');
        }
        else {
            // Open this row
            row.child( virtual_aliases_show(row.data()) ).show();
            virtual_aliases_load_show(row.data());
            tr.addClass('shown');

        }
    } );
