This is a tough one ...at least for me. I have a simple input radio button that is available in every row which is created in a column render. The problem is when the radio is selected it does not have the 'checked' attribute associated to it, however if i pre-set the radio value as 'checked' it the column render it does have the 'checked' attribute associated to it. I was able to test this with a button that iterates over the table rows and checks the value of each button. I hope someone can help me out with this.
This does not work...
{sortable: false,
"render": function ( data, type, full, meta ) {
return '<input type="radio" id="plantManagerApprovalRadio_'+ table.data().count() +'" >'
}// End - "render": function ( data, type, full, meta )
},
This does work...
{sortable: false,
"render": function ( data, type, full, meta ) {
return '<input type="radio" id="plantManagerApprovalRadio_'+ table.data().count() +'" checked >'
}// End - "render": function ( data, type, full, meta )
},
