hide data until searched
hide data until searched
Hey,
I'm trying to see if this is possible. I'm looking to provide the data table information, but don't show the user until they selected a filter option and then just show that data filtered.

As you can see I have a filter tab. In my current setup. I'll have a filter section where the user can select what they want to see. I'd be using something like https://datatables.net/examples/api/regex.html, but I'll have checkboxes

You can hide the table with jQuery's
hide()
method. I would try it insideinitComplete
for each table you want hidden, for example:Then
show()
the table once you are ready to search.Not sure if that is answering your questions.

Thanks @kthorngren
I know how to do it with js, but just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something that you had already built.
