This is continuation to Part 107. Please watch Part 107 from jQuery tutorial before proceeding. When we click on a column name, the respective column visibility should be toggled. The following are the changes required for the example we worked with in Part 107. Include the following HTML just above the datatable markup <div style="padding: 5px; padding-left: 0px"> <b>Show/Hide Column : </b> <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="0">Id</a> - <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="1">First Name</a> - <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="2">Last Name</a> - <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="3">Gender</a> - <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="4">Job Title</a> - <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="5">Web Site</a> - <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="6">Salary</a> - <a class="showHideColumn" data-columnindex="7">Hire Date</a> </div> Include the following style section, in the head section of the page <style> .showHideColumn { cursor: pointer; color: blue; } </style> Finally, include the following code block in the success callback function $('.showHideColumn').on('click', function () { var tableColumn = datatableInstance.column($(this).attr('data-columnindex')); tableColumn.visible(!tableColumn.visible()); });
