Hey Guys,
I've been using DataTables and loving it. Of course I have someone who "needs" a table with 18 or so columns of data. About eight of them are date fields, and all the columns need to be sortable. There are other dropdowns as well which are planned to be filters for rendering the data.
In your experience, what do you guys do when faced with too much data to realistically display on a page? Color coding, popovers, drilldown, etc are viable options .. I just can't see needing to display 8 columns of dates, other than the fact they are needed for the sorting ability. Just wanting to see what everyone else thinks.
Thanks!
