How do you choose between paging and scrolling?
Note that there is a fundamental difference between paging and scrolling. Scrolling actually scrolls the cursor up or down through the text a line at a time, as though it were on a paper scroll. Paging moves the cursor up or down through the text a screenful at a time.
How do I make a data table scrollable?
DataTables has the ability to show tables with horizontal scrolling, which is very useful for when you have a wide table, but want to constrain it to a limited horizontal display area. To enable x-scrolling simply set the scrollX parameter to be true .
How to use pagination in DataTable?
The paging option is used to specify whether the paging of the DataTable is enabled or not. The DataTable splits the records being shown in multiple pages so that only a certain number of records are shown on a page. The number of records to show can be selected using the dropdown menu.
