This module provides views integration for the DataTables jQuery plugin, which 
provides advanced interaction controls to HTML tables such as dynamic
pagination, on-the-fly filtering, and column sorting.

For full documentation and examples, visit the DataTables jQuery plugin page:
  http://plugins.jquery.com/project/DataTables


-- Installation --

* Copy the datatables module to sites/all/modules directory.

* Download the latest DataTables jQuery plugin 1.9 package from:
    http://datatables.net/releases/DataTables-1.9.3.zip

* Extract the archive and move the dataTables-1.9/media folder to the 
  sub-directory called dataTables in the datatables folder:

    sites/all/modules/datatables/dataTables/

  The final path to the media folder should be:

    sites/all/modules/datatables/dataTables/media

* Alternatively, if you are using the Libraries API module
  (http://drupal.org/project/libraries), you can place the dataTables folder in
  sites/all/libraries/ so final path is sites/all/libraries/datatables (note the
  lower case directory name).  See http://drupal.org/node/1440066 for more
  information.

* Enable the module at Administer >> Site building >> Modules.

-- Usage --

* Create a new view at admin/build/views/add

* Add fields to show in the table.

* Select DataTables as the view style.
