aoColumnDefs sWidth is not applied to the columns

MarcBorgers

Hi,

I want to control the width of the columns.
According to the doc, I should be able to do that using aoColumnDefs.sWidth.
This does not seem to work.
I included my page.

What am I doing wrong?

function sendForm(action)
{
var f = document.myform;

f.posted.value = "true";
f.actie.value = action;
f.submit();
}

function fillDataTable(idOfTableToFill) {
var oTable = $(idOfTableToFill).dataTable( {
"sDom": 'Rlfrtip',
"sAjaxSource": 'components.json.jsp',
"bAutoWidth": false,
"aoColumnDefs": [
{ "sWidth": "150px", "aTargets": [ 1 ] },
{ "sWidth": "150px", "aTargets": [ 2 ] },
{ "sWidth": "150px", "aTargets": [ 3 ] },
{ "sWidth": "150px", "aTargets": [ 4 ] }
],
"sScrollY": "300px",
"sScrollX": "400px",
// "bScrollCollapse": true,
"bPaginate": false,
"oColReorder": {
"iFixedColumns": 1
}
} );
new FixedColumns( oTable, {
"iLeftWidth": 250
} );
}

$(document).ready( function () {
fillDataTable('#example');
} );

I adjusted the example right_column.html. I was able to add a fixed width to the first 3 columns. When I added a fixed width to the 4th colum, it goes wrong...

The first thing to check would be that you are using the latest version of DataTables. Also it it would be very helpful to be able to see a link of thing in action. Table column widths are particularly difficult, since you generally don't have pixel level control over them - the browser can overrule what widths you've applied if it thinks the sizes don't add up.

i am wondering can i use aoColumnDefs to control the first column to be display once for mutiple rows. The whole table seems to be neasted.
That is: a host may have many services, i want to display host name once in the first column, but every service is displayed as a row in the table.
