This site contains the legacy documentation for DataTables v1.9 and earlier for reference only.
DataTables 1.10 is the current release and is now available.
ColVis example - two tables with individual controls

Preamble

It can be useful to have DataTables initialise more than one table with a single call can for them to each have individual ColVis controllers. All this requires is a suitable jQuery selector to be used, and DataTables and ColVis will take care of the rest - as shown in this example.
