I am trying to work with jQuery's Datatable JS for my project from this link.
I downloaded the complete library from the same source. All the examples given in the package seem to work fine, but when I try to incorporate them in my WebForms,the CSS,JS do not work at all.
Here is what I have done :
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
<link href="css/jquery.dataTables.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<table id="myTable" class="display" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Position</th>
<th>Office</th>
<th>Age</th>
<th>Start date</th>
<th>Salary</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Position</th>
<th>Office</th>
<th>Age</th>
<th>Start date</th>
<th>Salary</th>
</tr>
</tfoot>
<tbody>
<!-- table body -->
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
<script src="js/jquery.dataTables.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#myTable').DataTable();
});
</script>
</form>
</body>
</html>
My file structure for the JS and CSS in my Solution looks as follows :
I have added all the necessary JS and CSS references as shown in the manual. Still the rendering isn't as expected. There is no CSS and even the JS doesn't work.
Also in the console i get the following errors:
ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
TypeError: $(...).DataTable is not a function
I have still not bound any dynamic data here (like within a repeater or so) still it is not working.
Can someone please guide me in the right direction for this problem ?
CAUSE
There could be multiple reasons for this error.
jQuery DataTables library is missing.
jQuery library is loaded after jQuery DataTables.
Multiple versions of jQuery library is loaded.
SOLUTION
Include only one version of jQuery library version 1.7 or newer before jQuery DataTables.
For example:
<script src="js/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.dataTables.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
See jQuery DataTables: Common JavaScript console errors for more information on this and other common console errors.
This worked for me. But make sure to load the jquery.js before the preferred dataTable.js file. Cheers!
<script type="text/javascript" src="~/Scripts/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="~/Scripts/data-table/jquery.dataTables.js"></script>
<script>$(document).ready(function () {
$.noConflict();
var table = $('# your selector').DataTable();
});</script>
I got this error because I found out that I referenced jQuery twice.
The first time: on the master page (_Layout.cshtml) in ASP.NET MVC, and then again on one current page so I commented out the one on the master page.
If you are using ASP.NET MVC this snippet could help you
#*#Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")*#//comment this line
#Scripts.Render("~/bundles/bootstrap")
#RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
and in the current page I added these lines
<script src="~/scripts/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
<!-- #region datatables files -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="//cdn.datatables.net/1.10.12/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css" />
<script src="//cdn.datatables.net/1.10.12/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
<!-- #endregion -->
Hope this help you even if don't use ASP.NET MVC
if some reason two versions of jQuery are loaded (which is not recommended), calling $.noConflict(true) from the second version will return the globally scoped jQuery variables to those of the first version.
Sometimes it could be issue with older version (or not stable) of JQuery files
Solution use $.noConflict();
<script src="js/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.dataTables.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
$.noConflict();
jQuery( document ).ready(function( $ ) {
$('#myTable').DataTable();
});
// Code that uses other library's $ can follow here.
</script>
Here is the complete set of JS and CSS required for the export table plugin to work perfectly.
Hope it will save your time

});
Result :-
Same error occurs when working with DataTables in a Laravel project. Even if the following solutions are tried, the error still remains:
making sure jQuery is included
include jQuery before including the DataTables
making sure only one version of jQuery is added
In order to remove the error, after making sure the above conditions are fulfilled, add "defer" to the tag which includes the DataTables. For example,
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.23/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js" defer></script>
There can be two reasons for that error:
First
You are loding jQuery.DataTables.js before jquery.js so for that :-
You need to load jQuery.js before you load jQuery.DataTables.js
Second
You are using two versions of jQuery.js on the same page so for that :-
Try to use the higher version and make sure both links have same version of jQuery
I tried many things but my solution was adding "defer" after html script that you included datatables.
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.25/js/jquery.dataTables.js" defer></script>
Honestly, this took hours to get this fixed. Finally only one thing worked a reconfirmation to solution provided by "Basheer AL-MOMANI". Which is just putting statement
#RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
within _Layout.cshtml file after all <script></script> elements and also commenting the jquery script in the same file. Secondly, I had to add
$.noConflict();
within jquery function call at another *.cshtml file as:
$(document).readyfunction () {
$.noConflict();
$("#example1").DataTable();
$('#example2').DataTable({
"paging": true,
"lengthChange": false,
"searching": false,
"ordering": true,
"info": true,
"autoWidth": false,
});
});
I know its late
Buy can help someone
This could also happen if you don't add $('#myTable').DataTable(); inside the document.ready
So instead of this
$('#myTable').DataTable();
Try This
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#myTable').DataTable();
});
I have Added defer to the data table jquery library reference. Now it is working for me.
<script src="~/Scripts/jquery.dataTables.min.js" defer></script>
I ran into this error also. For whatever reason I had originally coded
var table = $('#myTable').DataTable({
"paging": false,
"order": [[ 4, "asc" ]]
});
This would not throw the error sometimes and other times it would. By changing code to
$('#myTable').DataTable({
"paging": false,
"order": [[ 4, "asc" ]]
});
Error appears to have stopped
In my case the solution was to delete cookies from the browser.
Having the same issue in Flask, I had already a template that loaded JQuery, Popper and Bootstrap. I was extending that template into other template that I was using as a base to load the page that had the table.
For some reason in Flask apparently the files in the outer template load before the files in the tables above in the hierarchy (the ones you are extending) so JQuery was loading before the DataTables files causing the issue.
I had to create another template where I run all my imports of JS CDNs in the same place, that solved the issue.
Sometimes it happens that the script (initializing of datatable) is embedded in a general page template, so if one of the pages that actually does not have any table and you did not import the jquery related files for datatable, you face this error, since the general initialization still is looking for that. (This was in my case)
Solution: Is to wrap the initialization of datatable inside a codition that check presence of the library before that:
Here is practical example of it.
if (typeof jQuery.fn.DataTable != "undefined"){
$('#accordionExample table').DataTable( {
"pageLength": 5,
"info": false,
"order": [[ 1, "desc" ]]
} );
}
This may also happen if you write Datatable instead of DataTable. (DataTable T must be capital). this is a beginner's mistake.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#category-table').DataTable({
// Your Code
});
if you are sure that you aligned your scripts as described above, please make sure you DataTable word case is correct.
Before
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#myTable').Datatable();
});
After
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#myTable').DataTable();
});
small t is creating problem, when I changed this t to T it worked like a charm.
I am having an issue getting a dialog to work as basic functionality. Here is my jQuery source imports:
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery-ui-1.11.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/json.debug.js"></script>
Html:
<button id="opener">open the dialog</button>
<div id="dialog1" title="Dialog Title" hidden="hidden">I'm a dialog</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#opener").click(function() {
$("#dialog1").dialog('open');
});
</script>
From the posts around seems like as a library import issue. I downloaded the JQuery UI Core, Widget, Mouse and Position dependencies.
Any Ideas?
Be sure to insert full version of jQuery UI. Also you should init the dialog first:
$(function () {
$( "#dialog1" ).dialog({
autoOpen: false
});
$("#opener").click(function() {
$("#dialog1").dialog('open');
});
});
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.1/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.1/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css" />
<button id="opener">open the dialog</button>
<div id="dialog1" title="Dialog Title" hidden="hidden">I'm a dialog</div>
if some reason two versions of jQuery are loaded (which is not recommended), calling $.noConflict(true) from the second version will return the globally scoped jQuery variables to those of the first version.
Some times it could be issue with older version (or not stable version) of JQuery files
Solution use $.noConflict();
<script src="other_lib.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
<script>
$.noConflict();
jQuery( document ).ready(function( $ ) {
$("#opener").click(function() {
$("#dialog1").dialog('open');
});
});
// Code that uses other library's $ can follow here.
</script>
If you comment out the following code from the _Layout.cshtml page, the modal popup will start working:
</footer>
#*#Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")*#
#RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
</body>
</html>
Change jQueryUI to version 1.11.4 and make sure jQuery is not added twice.
I just experienced this with the line:
$('<div id="editor" />').dialogelfinder({
I got the error "dialogelfinder is not a function" because another component was inserting a call to load an older version of JQuery (1.7.2) after the newer version was loaded.
As soon as I commented out the second load, the error went away.
Here are the complete list of scripts required to get rid of this problem.
(Make sure the file exists at the given file path)
<script src="#Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-1.8.2.js")" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script src="#Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.24.js")" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script src="#Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery.validate.js")" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script src="#Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js")" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script src="#Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.js")" type="text/javascript">
</script>
and also include the below css link in _Layout.cshtml for a stylish popup.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../../Content/themes/base/jquery-ui.css" />
I had a similar problem and in my case, the issue was different (I am using Django templates).
The order of JS was incorrect (I know that's the first thing you check but I was almost sure that that was not the case, but it was). The js calling the dialog was called before jqueryUI library was called.
I am using Django, so was inheriting a template and using {{super.block}} to inherit code from the block as well to the template. I had to move {{super.block}} at the end of the block which solved the issue. The js calling the dialog was declared in the Media class in Django's admin.py. I spent more than an hour to figure it out. Hope this helps someone.
It works at first open of the page but when i navigate to other pages that uses also the datepicker. It no longer works. Did i missed something in my code? Please see below. Thank you so much.
<link href="css/custom-theme/jquery-ui-1.10.3.custom.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="js/jquery-1.9.1.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script>
<script src="js/jquery-ui-1.10.3.custom.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$('#btnDfrom').focus(function () {
$(this).datepicker();
});
$('#btnDto').focus(function () {
$(this).datepicker();
});
</script>
<span id="filtertxt">Date From: </span>
<input type="text" id="btnDfrom" />
<span id="filtertxt">Date To: </span>
<input type="text" id="btnDto" />
This one does not work also
$(function(){
$('#btnDfrom').datepicker();
$('#btnDto').datepicker();
});
Jquery UI datepicker isn't intended to be called multiple times on the same element, which is what would happen if you call it on a focus event.
All you need to do is call it once on the target element, like so:
$(function(){
$('#btnDfrom').datepicker();
$('#btnDto').datepicker();
});
The datepicker plugin will take care of handling clicks and focus events on the elements by itself, you don't need to.
EDIT: You should also check that you are both including the script files, css files and this code on each page where you use the datepicker (but make sure it's only included once!)
your code is looking cool
$(function(){
$('#btnDfrom').datepicker();
$('#btnDto').datepicker();
});
check your code I think may be jquery is Conflicting somewhere in your pages.
This seems like it would have a really obvious answer, however I cannot get a simple checkbox to uncheck with JQuery once I add Jquery Mobile.
Here is some very simple code as an illustration:
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.1/jquery.mobile-1.3.1.min.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.1/jquery.mobile-1.3.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery(function () {
jQuery('#a').change(function () {
if (jQuery(this).is(':checked')) {
jQuery('#b').removeAttr('checked');
}
});
jQuery('#b').change(function () {
if (jQuery(this).is(':checked')) {
jQuery('#a').removeAttr('checked');
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="checkbox" id="a"><label for="a">AAAA</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="b"><label for="b">BBBB</label>
</body>
</html>
This is a simple bit of code. When Checkbox 'A' gets checked, it should uncheck checkbox 'B', and vise verse. However it doesn't, and no error is written to the console.
This is using the standard version of Jquery & Jquery Mobile, linked directly to their site
If I remove the Jquery Mobile elements, by removing the following lines, then it works fine
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.1/jquery.mobile-1.3.1.min.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.1/jquery.mobile-1.3.1.min.js"></script>
Can anyone please enlighten me as to where I am going wrong, since this seems so simple yet I'm at an absolute loss as to what is going on.
Many thanks
Because you need to use .prop and then re-apply styles using .checkboxradio('refresh').
Check
$('selector').prop('checked', true).checkboxradio('refresh');
Uncheck
$('selector').prop('checked', false).checkboxradio('refresh');
I have this simple code, like that on the official site.
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>jQuery UI Datepicker - Default functionality</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="jquery.ui.all.css">
<script src="jquery-1.6.2.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.ui.core.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.ui.widget.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.ui.datepicker.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="demos.css">
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker({ dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd' });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="demo">
<p>Date: <input type="text" id="datepicker"></p>

Obviously in the same folder I've moved the interested files and all works ok.
But the layout is awful, because sure miss something.
My output is this:

How can I solve this problem?
Thank you.
I dare say it's the style file: you probably have an incorrect path for the file or the file is corrupted. See the following two examples:
without css: http://jsfiddle.net/william/5Xa8f
with css: http://jsfiddle.net/william/5Xa8f/2/
To confirm it is the problem, simply replace jquery.ui.all.css with http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.16/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css, and see if the problem is fixed.
