Scroller without fixed height about scroller HOT 5 CLOSED

I don't quite understand I'm afraid - you want the table to be as high as the number of rows in a page - but to do paging still? Wouldn't that just be the no scrolling situation with paging enabled?

One thing to note, you can't use the paging controls in a table with Scroller enabled. You need to have scrolling enabled, but you can let the user pick the page, since Scroller uses the paging abilities internally.

When using DataTables without Scroller, the height of the table is like any standard table, it's the height of all the rows combined. When using Scroller, I have to specify scrollY.

I want to be able to use Scroller, but let the height be automatic based on the "currently displayed rows". So basically scrollY would be equal to the height of all of the rows based on the current length option. So if length is set to 10, and each row is 50px high, then the height that would be used instead of scrollY would be 50x10, or 500px.

I see - in which case do scrollY: $('#myTable tbody tr:eq(0)').height() * 10.

The problem is what happens if the user decides to change the length? That's why a scrollY: 'length' would be nice.

Otherwise you have to add code to listen on length changes, then change the table height (unless there is an actual function to call to resize the table using DataTables height calculations?).

Stupid me.. This is what happens when I'm coding and submit a feature request at the same time.
