Hiding search and lengthChange leaves empty divs behind

FlyingPig

Hi,

I have the problem that when I set elements to false:

$.extend($.fn.dataTable.defaults, {
searching: false,
lengthChange: false
});

Then there are still empty divs being created:

Those are the divs that are the containers for search and lengthchange. They are now filling up empty space in height, which makes it ugly. Does anyone know if there is a solution for this?

Thanks, Asa

Hi @FlyingPig ,

If you want to hide those elements it's best to use dom - here you can customise which elements get displayed.

Cheers,
