Tips when moving from YUI Datatable to Jquery Datatable

Question

I thus far used YUI Datatable to render all my records... Since Jquery is very popular nowdays and a lightweighter one than YUi, I've decided to use it...

• What are the Learning curves when moving from YUI to jquery?
• Tips and tricks about Jquery Datatable?
• Can I configure paginator in jquery datatable?

Answer 1

Learning curve: You should find that jQuery may be simpler than YUI. It really depends on what you are trying to do. That is, how complex are the tables and the processing that you require. At its simplest the jQuery datatable only needs a single line of code to create. Since you are already familiar with YUI I do not see any problem that you will have with jQuery.

And yes you can configure the paginator in jQuery datatable.
