NOTE!:
{sortList:col}was added to theajaxUrlin version 2.6.{filterList:fcol}was added to theajaxUrlin version 2.4.5.- This update to the pager plugin that interacts with a database via ajax was added in version 2.0.32 and can be applied to the original tablesorter.
- The
ajaxUrlandajaxProcessingfunction are both required options for this interaction to work properly. - The
ajaxUrlcontains a replaceable string to sent the requested page ({page}), block size ({size}) or sort order ({sortList:name}). - The
ajaxProcessingfunction must* return the data in the following format[ total, rows, headers ]- Modified in 2.1.3:[ // total # rows contained in the database 100, // row data: array of arrays; each internal array has the table cell data for that row [ [ "row1cell1", "row1cell2", ... "row1cellN" ], // first row [ "row2cell1", "row2cell2", ... "row2cellN" ], // second row ... [ "rowNcell1", "rowNcell2", ... "rowNcellN" ] // last row ], // header text (optional) [ "Header1", "Header2", ... "HeaderN" ] ] - The table header and footer text will be updated to match the JSON "header column #" text; but there is an issue with the table rendering improperly if the number of columns in the HTML and the number of columns in the JSON don't match.
- Limitations of this demo:
- This demo will not work in Chrome due to restrictions with browser and desktop interaction.
- The record size is limited to 25 records because this demo is not interacting with an actual database, but with four JSON files containing 25 records each.
* If you have a different JSON format and need help with the processing code, please ask the question on StackOverflow or message me directly (gmail; wowmotty). Please don't open an issue for help with code.
