Hi Guys,
I'm trying to pass the values from selected rows to an array using toArray().
I'm testing using a button with an event attached to it. If I select one row with, then click the button, it displays an array of the vales in the column for ALL records, while the count alert (correctly) shows one row selected.
Here is the jquery...
<script>
$(document).ready( function () {
var table = $('#volunteers').removeAttr('width').DataTable( {
scrollY: "800px",
scrollX: true,
select: true,
scrollCollapse: true,
columnDefs: [
{ "width": "150", "targets": 0 }
],
fixedColumns: true
} );
$('#selected').click(function () {
var array = table.rows('.selected')
.column(2)
.data()
.toArray()
alert(array);
alert( table.rows('.selected').data().length +' row(s) selected' );
});
} );
</script>
Any suggestions as to what I may be doing incorrectly?
Cheers,
J

You will want to use
pluck()instead ofcolumn(). For example:Thanks kthorngren! Worked a charm.
