  I'm reading data from the DOM

  I'm trying to progress with this and trying to iterate through the rows shown after a search and trying to select them:

              buttons: [
                  { extend: 'create', editor: editor1 },
                  { extend: 'edit', editor: editor1 },
                  { extend: 'remove', editor: editor1 },
                  {
                      text: '@(lblo.lblSelectAll)',
                      action: function (e, dt, node, config) {
                          var table = $('#tblDataTable1').DataTable();
                          var objRows = table.rows( {order:'index', search:'applied'} ).nodes();
                          if (objRows.length > 0) {
                              //for(var i = 0; i < objRows.length; ++i){
                              //    objRows[i].addClass('selected');
                              //}
                              objRows.select().draw();
                          }
                          else {
                              table.rows( { page: 'all' } ).select();
                          }
                          objRows = null;
                          table = null;
                      }
                  },
  

  objRows holds the rows from the search results but next is to select them in code. I can't find how this is done: how would i iterate through the objRows object or 'bulk' select them directly via some .select() method? Many thanks.

  Use the selector-modifier of { search: 'applied' }, for example:
  table.rows( {search: 'applied'} ).select();

  Here is a running example:

  Is this what you are looking for?
