What can this extension do?

Add the jQuery extension DataTables (written by Allan Jardine) to MediaWiki using the ResourceLoader.

Usage

Once this installation is installed, you can require this module using the resource loader by adding it as a dependency like so:

$myResourceLoaderModule => array(
        'scripts' =>  array(
                'js/ext.myExtension.js'
        ),
        'styles' => array(
                'css/ext.myExtension.css'
        ),
        'dependencies' => array(
                'ext.datatables',
        ),
        'messages' => array( )
);

See the documentation for the ResourceLoader.

You can then have your JavaScript call datatables using the typical call:

$( '#example' ).dataTable();

Please see the excellent documentation of DataTables at http://datatables.net/. There are many examples and this code is quite flexible.
