Notes
-
In the below examples the first row is expanded by default using the
expandFirst option to better
illustrate how setting a columns visible option to false will hide it from both
the normal and details rows.
-
In the below examples the
"Date of Birth" column is always hidden using the all breakpoint.
This is done so the details of the first row are always displayed regardless of the screen size so you can see the ID column is not visible.
To hide a column entirely from view, meaning it will not be displayed in either the normal or details row, simply use the visible
column option and set it to false.
This example shows a table where the first column ID is completely hidden from view using the data-visible column attribute.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable();
});
