DataTable - how to show _TOTAL_ token as a percentage of _MAX_ token

theHearse

I'm trying to include a calculation within DataTable that shows to the user the "TOTAL"(filtered row count token) as a percentage of "MAX' (table row count token) and for the result to be returned to the "infoFiltered" attribute.

Is this possible and if so how?

Thanks.

Richard.

I don't believe you can use calculations with language.info. Try using infoCallback instead.

Thanks. I'm now using infoCallback and it works as expected with the percentage rounded to 1 decimal place. Very useful.

var table = $('#example').DataTable({
    infoCallback: function( settings, start, end, max, total, pre ) {
       if (total == 0) return "None found";
       return 'Showing '+total+' of '+max+' or '+ Math.round(((total/max)*100) *10)/10 +'%';},
    }
})
