Newbie - How Do I Install the Zero Configuration DOM?

I copied 2 .js scripts into my server and added a table into my web page but still cannot see the table. Is it just a matter of copying .js files and making sure my web page has the proper headings and table? Or, do I need to contact my programmer and have them fiddle with the server?

I only know simple html and some css but a novice otherwise.

Any help would be great!

    yes, it will be as simple as the following:

    1) include jquery js
    2) include datatables js
    3) have a table (table must have )
    4) intialize the table to be a DataTables object

    optional
    1) include a css document

    [code]






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








    Rendering engine
    Browser
    Platform(s)
    Engine version
    CSS grade

    1) include jquery js (I copied the jquery.js file and sent it to my server)
    2) include datatables js (I copied the /jquery.dataTables.js file and sent it to my server)
    3) have a table (table must have ) (I have that - see attached)
    4) intialize the table to be a DataTables object (not sure what this means!)

    My page so far:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">





    DataTables example

    @import "/release-datatables/media/css/demo_page.css";
    @import "/release-datatables/media/css/demo_table.css";




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









    Column 1
    Column 2
    etc




    Row 1 Data 1
    Row 1 Data 2
    etc


    Row 2 Data 1
    Row 2 Data 2
    etc

    I now have the table displayed, It took me a while, but I found all of the png and jpg images at
    http://code.google.com/p/jquery-datatables-editable/source/browse/trunk/media/images/forward_enabled.jpg?r=65&spec=svn65

    The only thing left? My table is not centered and is as wide as the screen. Any ideas as to how to get this to render like its example?
