<h1>DataTables example
<span>Child rows (show extra / detailed information)
</span></h1>
<div class="info">
<p>The DataTables API has a number of methods available for attaching child rows to a
<em>parent
</em>
row in the DataTable. This can be used to show additional information about a row, useful for cases
where you wish to convey more information about a row than there is space for in the host table.
</p>
<p>The example below makes use of the
<a href="//datatables.net/reference/api/row().child"><code class=
"api" title="DataTables API method">row().child
<span>DT
</span></code></a> methods to firstly check if a
row is already displayed, and if so hide it (
<a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/api/row().child.hide()"><code class="api" title=
"DataTables API method">row().child.hide()
<span>DT
</span></code></a>), otherwise show it (
<a href=
"//datatables.net/reference/api/row().child.show()"><code class="api" title=
"DataTables API method">row().child.show()
<span>DT
</span></code></a>). The content of the child row is,
in this example, defined by the
<code>formatDetails()
</code> function, but you would replace that with
whatever you wanted to show the content required, possibly including, for example, an Ajax call to the
server to obtain the extra information to show.
