			<h1>TableTools example <span>Row selection - row selector on specific cells</span></h1>

<div class="info">
				<p>By default, TableTools' row selector option will register a row selection click on any part of the row. Although this is often desirable, you might wish at
				times to limit the row selection to just a single column, or other elements in the row. This might be useful, for example, with <a href=
				"//editor.datatables.net">Editor's</a> inline editing, so you don't select the row on click of a cell that is to be edited.</p>

<p>The <code>sRowSelector</code> method provides this ability, allowing a custom jQuery selector to be passed in. TableTools will use the parent row of any element
				that is selected by the end user.</p>

<p>In this case, the row selector is attached to the cells in the first column of the table, and <a href="http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome">Font
				Awesome</a> is used to display a checkbox indicating the selection state of the row, in addition to the row background colouring.</p>

				<li>Server-side script</li>
			</ul>

<div class="tabs">
				<div class="js">
					<p>The Javascript shown below is used to initialise the table shown in this example:</p><code class="multiline language-js">$(document).ready(function() {
	$('#example').DataTable( {
		ajax: &quot;../../../examples/ajax/data/objects.txt&quot;,
		columns: [
			{ data: null, defaultContent: '', orderable: false },
			{ data: 'name' },
			{ data: 'position' },
			{ data: 'office' },
			{ data: 'extn' },
			{ data: 'start_date' },
			{ data: 'salary' }
		],
		order: [ 1, 'asc' ],
		dom: 'T&lt;&quot;clear&quot;&gt;lfrtip',
		tableTools: {
			sRowSelect:   'os',
			sRowSelector: 'td:first-child',
			aButtons:     [ 'select_all', 'select_none' ]
		}
	} );
} );</code>

<p>In addition to the above code, the following Javascript library files are loaded for use in this example:</p>

<ul>
						<li><a href="../../../media/js/jquery.js">../../../media/js/jquery.js</a></li>
						<li><a href="../../../media/js/jquery.dataTables.js">../../../media/js/jquery.dataTables.js</a></li>
						<li><a href="../js/dataTables.tableTools.js">../js/dataTables.tableTools.js</a></li>
					</ul>
				</div>

<div class="table">
					<p>The HTML shown below is the raw HTML table element, before it has been enhanced by DataTables:</p>
				</div>

<div class="css">
					<div>
						<p>This example uses a little bit of additional CSS beyond what is loaded from the library files (below), in order to correctly display the table. The
						additional CSS used is shown below:</p><code class="multiline language-css">tr td:first-child {
		text-align: center;
	}

tr td:first-child:before {
		content: &quot;\f096&quot;; /* fa-square-o */
		font-family: FontAwesome;
	}

tr.selected td:first-child:before {
		content: &quot;\f046&quot;; /* fa-check-square-o */
	}</code>
					</div>

<p>The following CSS library files are loaded for use in this example to provide the styling of the table:</p>

<ul>
						<li><a href="../../../media/css/jquery.dataTables.css">../../../media/css/jquery.dataTables.css</a></li>
						<li><a href="../css/dataTables.tableTools.css">../css/dataTables.tableTools.css</a></li>

<div class="ajax">
					<p>This table loads data by Ajax. The latest data that has been loaded is shown below. This data will update automatically as any additional data is

					<p>The script used to perform the server-side processing for this table is shown below. Please note that this is just an example script using PHP. Server-side
