Datatable Tool options - Excel,CSV,PDF and Copy is not working?

Karthickeyan

I downloaded dataTables.tableTools.js and trying to run it, but Excel,CSV,PDF and Copy is not working only print option is working,I followed all steps given in document.

I could see the mouse pointer changing on hover.

$('#_dynamicReportTable').dataTable({ "autoWidth": false, "bInfo": false, paging: false,
"dom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
"tableTools": {
"aButtons": ["print", "csv"],
"sSwfPath": window.location.protocol + "//" + window.location.host + "/_layouts/TimeSheet/js/ui/supportFiles/copy_cvs_xls_pdf.swf"
}
});

What do you mean?

$("#_dynamicReportContainer").empty();
var tableDefinition = "<table id='_dynamicReportTable'><thead><tr>";

// do some updates here...

tableDefinition = tableDefinition.concat('</tr></thead></table>');
$('#_dynamicReportContainer').append(tableDefinition);
var table = $('#_dynamicReportContainer').children();

// do some updates here...

reportData.each(function (k, v) {
       table.append("<tr><td>" + startDate + "</td><td>" + queryStringSecondary + "</td><td>" + k + "</td><td>" + v + "</td></tr>");
});

// do some updates here...

$('#_dynamicReportTable').dataTable({ "autoWidth": false, "bInfo": false, paging: false,
    "dom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
    "tableTools": {
        "aButtons": ["print", "csv"],
        "sSwfPath": window.location.protocol + "//" + window.location.host + "/_layouts/TimeSheet/js/ui/supportFiles/copy_cvs_xls_pdf.swf"
    }
});

I could see the data on the table(datatable) and could print however other options(Excel,CSV...) are not working.
