<h1>FixedColumns example <span>Server-side processing</span></h1>
<div class="info">
<p>This example shows how FixedColumns can be used with server-side processing in DataTables to cope with very large tables. No special considerations are
required, just initialise FixedColumns as you normally would!</p>
<p>Note that the table width is constrained in this example to allow scrolling to occur as the server-side processing data set has a limited number of columns in
this demo!</p>
</div>
<table id="example" class="stripe row-border order-column" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Position</th>
<th>Office</th>
<th>Extn.</th>
<th>Start date</th>
<th>Salary</th>

<div class="tabs">
<div class="js">
<p>The Javascript shown below is used to initialise the table shown in this example:</p><code class="multiline language-js">$(document).ready(function() {
var table = $('#example').DataTable( {
scrollY: "300px",
scrollX: true,
scrollCollapse: true,
ajax: "../../../../examples/server_side/scripts/server_processing.php",
serverSide: true,
fixedColumns: true
} );
} );</code>
<p>In addition to the above code, the following Javascript library files are loaded for use in this example:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.3.min.js">//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.3.min.js</a>

</div>
<div class="table">
<p>The HTML shown below is the raw HTML table element, before it has been enhanced by DataTables:</p>
</div>
<div class="css">
<div>
<p>This example uses a little bit of additional CSS beyond what is loaded from the library files (below), in order to correctly display the table. The
additional CSS used is shown below:</p><code class="multiline language-css">/* Ensure that the demo table scrolls */
th, td { white-space: nowrap; }
div.dataTables_wrapper {
width: 600px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
/* Lots of padding for the cells as SSP has limited data in the demo */
th,
td {
padding-left: 40px !important;
padding-right: 40px !important;
}</code>
</div>
<p>The following CSS library files are loaded for use in this example to provide the styling of the table:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="../../../../media/css/jquery.dataTables.css">../../../../media/css/jquery.dataTables.css</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="../../css/fixedColumns.dataTables.css">../../css/fixedColumns.dataTables.css</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="ajax">
<p>This table loads data by Ajax. The latest data that has been loaded is shown below. This data will update automatically as any additional data is
loaded.</p>
</div>
<div class="php">
<p>The script used to perform the server-side processing for this table is shown below. Please note that this is just an example script using PHP. Server-side
processing scripts can be written in any language, using <a href="//datatables.net/manual/server-side">the protocol described in the DataTables
documentation</a>.</p>
