I am using a jQuery Datatable and i would like to have a column of checkboxes and the header should contain a select all checkbox . I have not found any details about this on the datatable official site.
Can someone help?
Thanks.

Welcome to StackOverflow. Do you have some examples of code you've tried?colestrode– colestrode2013-04-17 18:31:38 +00:00Commented Apr 17, 2013 at 18:31

One way would be to use the aoColumns property of datatables and just render your markup for the "sTitle" property as an html string.
http://www.datatables.net/usage/columns
//On datatable init the options would look something like this
"aoColumns": [{ "sTitle": "<input type='checkbox' id='selectAll'></input>"}]
Then you could just wire up a handler to the header checkbox after the datatable is created to check/uncheck all the checkboxes;
So something like:
$("#selectAll").toggle(function () {
$("checkboxSelector", dataTable.fnGetNodes()).attr("checked", true); }
, function () {
$("checkboxSelector", dataTable.fnGetNodes()).attr("checked", false);
}
);

Cdlong, can you explain this code a bit more ? That would be of great help.
you can have row like below
<tr>
<th><input type="checkbox" id="selectall"/></th>
<th>Cell phone</th>
<th>Rating</th>
and jquery to wire up
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
$(function(){
// add multiple select / deselect functionality
$("#selectall").click(function () {
$('.case').attr('checked', this.checked);
});
// if all checkbox are selected, check the selectall checkbox
// and viceversa
$(".case").click(function(){
if($(".case").length == $(".case:checked").length) {
$("#selectall").attr("checked", "checked");
} else {
$("#selectall").removeAttr("checked");
}
});
});
</SCRIPT>

How about getting all records after clicking to this textbox?
