DOM - How to hide unformatted table during page load

jteutenberg

I have to use the DOM data source, because our td content is complex.
During the load of the page the normal content of the table is shown until it is rendered with DataTables.
Is there a way to hide the table until it is rendered with DataTables?
The reason is, that we don't want to show the unformatted table to our customer.

Example:

Yep, you should be able to just use the jQuery hide() and show() methods - something like this: http://live.datatables.net/xiyemuru/2/edit

Thanks Colin.
But "$('table').hide();" doesn't work in that way.
But if I use "style="display: none;"" directly on the table it is working.
