FooTable has a few easy and quick ways to get started. There is a Bootstrap version which adheres to your current Bootstrap theme. A standalone version for those of you who do not want to use Bootstrap, and finally there is a download which contains each individual component used to create both the Bootstrap and standalone versions.
FooTable is downloadable in three forms, within each you'll find the following directories and files, logically grouping common resources and providing both compiled and minified variations.
Once downloaded, unzip the compressed folder to see the structure of the Bootstrap version. You'll see something like this:
footable/
├── css/
│ ├── footable.bootstrap.css
│ └── footable.bootstrap.min.css
└── js/
├── footable.js
└── footable.min.js
This is the easiest way to use FooTable; precompiled files for quick drop-in usage with Bootstrap. We provide compiled CSS and JS (footable.*
), as well as compiled and minified CSS and JS (footable.*.min.*
). This version will adhere to the Bootstrap theme that is currently loaded into the page on the condition that the theme supports tables, dropdowns, pagination and forms.
Please note that when using this version FooTable requires Bootstrap to be included.
Once downloaded, unzip the compressed folder to see the structure of the standalone version. You'll see something like this:
footable/
├── css/
│ ├── footable.standalone.css
│ └── footable.standalone.min.css
└── js/
├── footable.js
└── footable.min.js
This is the second easiest way to use FooTable; precompiled files for quick drop-in usage. We provide compiled CSS and JS (footable.*
), as well as compiled and minified CSS and JS (footable.*.min.*
). This version does not have theme support and will require custom CSS to override any styling.
Please note that when using this version FooTable requires FontAwesome to be included for icons. If you need a truly stand alone version with no dependencies then you should take a look at the FooTable.FontAwesome.css
and FooTable.Glyphicons.css
files in the GitHub repo and create your own custom icons.
Once downloaded, unzip the compressed folder to see the structure of the components version. You'll see something like this:
footable/
├── css/
│ ├── footable.core.bootstrap.css
│ ├── footable.core.bootstrap.min.css
│ ├── footable.core.standalone.css
│ ├── footable.core.standalone.min.css
│ ├── footable.filtering.css
│ ├── footable.filtering.min.css
│ ├── footable.paging.css
│ ├── footable.paging.min.css
│ ├── footable.sorting.css
│ └── footable.sorting.min.css
└── js/
├── footable.core.js
├── footable.core.min.js
├── footable.filtering.js
├── footable.filtering.min.js
├── footable.paging.js
├── footable.paging.min.js
├── footable.sorting.js
└── footable.sorting.min.js
This is the most complicated method of using FooTable, however it provides the ability to tailor the plugin to your needs by leaving out components that you will not use. We provide compiled CSS and JS (footable.*
), as well as compiled and minified CSS and JS (footable.*.min.*
) of all components that make up FooTable.
When using the individual components FooTable requires footable.core.js
and then either the footable.core.bootstrap.css
OR footable.core.standalone.css
files or there minified equivalents to be included.
When including components such as sorting its JavaScript and CSS files should be included after the core files mentioned above.
FooTable is designed to work from an HTML first perspective meaning options parsed from the DOM take precedence over those supplied through JavaScript. Check the individual components documentation for more information on there specific options.
The object that defines what the breakpoints are that columns use to determine there visibility.
This is a simple object containing a key value structure of breakpoint names and there associated widths. Apart from the breakpoints supplied via
this option there is also a built in one called all
which will simply always hide a column and display it in the details row.
null
If no breakpoints are provided the plugin falls back to the below defaults.
{
"xs": 480, // extra small
"sm": 768, // small
"md": 992, // medium
"lg": 1200 // large
}
The following table shows the default breakpoints and how they apply to a columns visibility at various widths.
Extra small devices Phones (<768px) | Small devices Tablets (≥768px) | Medium devices Desktops (≥992px) | Large devices Desktops (≥1200px) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
all |
Hidden | Hidden | Hidden | Hidden |
xs |
Hidden | Visible | Visible | Visible |
sm |
Visible | Hidden | Visible | Visible |
md |
Visible | Visible | Hidden | Visible |
lg |
Visible | Visible | Visible | Hidden |
To supply custom breakpoints through data attributes you must follow valid JSON syntax including quoted property names.
<table data-breakpoints='{ "x-small": 480, "small": 768, "medium": 992, "large": 1200, "x-large": 1400 }'>
...
</table>
The below shows how to supply custom breakpoints directly through the options.
$('.table').footable({
"breakpoints": {
"x-small": 480,
"small": 768,
"medium": 992,
"large": 1200,
"x-large": 1400
}
});
The following table shows the above custom breakpoints and how they would apply to a columns visibility at various widths.
Extra small devices Phones (<480px) | Small devices Tablets (≥768px) | Medium devices Desktops (≥992px) | Large devices Desktops (≥1200px) | Extra large devices Wide Screen (≥1400px) | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|

x-large |
Visible | Visible | Visible | Visible | Hidden |
all
breakpoint can not be overridden, it will always hide the column regardless of what is supplied through the options.cascade
option will also work with custom breakpoints.Changes how breakpoints affect column visibility.
false
When set to true
this makes specifying a columns breakpoints
a bit simpler if you do not need to reshow the column again on a smaller device.
How this option effects breakpoints can best be seen in the following table showing the default breakpoints.
However to put it simply, when the current breakpoints columns are hidden, all larger breakpoints columns will be hidden as well.
This means you would no longer need to specify xs
, sm
and md
to hide a column at all three
breakpoints but could instead just specify md
.
Extra small devices Phones (<768px) | Small devices Tablets (≥768px) | Medium devices Desktops (≥992px) | Large devices Desktops (≥1200px) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
all |
Hidden | Hidden | Hidden | Hidden |
xs |
Hidden | Visible | Visible | Visible |
sm |
Hidden | Hidden | Visible | Visible |
md |
Hidden | Hidden | Hidden | Visible |
lg |
Hidden | Hidden | Hidden | Hidden |
To supply this option through data attributes you must specify the attribute on the table
element.
<table data-cascade="true">
...
</table>
The below shows how to supply the value directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"cascade": true
});
});
An array of simple objects containing the various column options supported by the plugin.
[]
This is a required option, at the very least a single column must supply a breakpoints
value otherwise the table will be ignored by the plugin.
When using static content column options must be supplied as data attributes on the cells of one of the following rows. The below is also the order in which the plugin checks the rows and if the first contains any options the second will be skipped.
The last row of the thead
element if one exists.
<table>
<thead>
...
<tr>
<th data-breakpoints="xs">ID</th>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Last Name</th>
<th data-breakpoints="xs">Job Title</th>
<th data-breakpoints="xs sm">Started</th>
<th data-breakpoints="xs sm md">DOB</th>
</tr>
</thead>
...
</table>
Or the first row of the tbody
or table
element.
<table>
<tr>
<td data-breakpoints="xs">1</td>
<td>John</td>
<td>Smith</td>
<td data-breakpoints="xs">Salesman</td>
<td data-breakpoints="xs sm">July 4th 2002</td>
<td data-breakpoints="xs sm md">August 22nd 1982</td>
</tr>
...
</table>
The columns must be supplied as an array of objects where the index matches that of where each should appear in the table. In the below the second and third columns have no options set so an empty object is supplied as a placeholder to maintain the correct index for all columns that follow.
$('.table').footable({
'columns': [
{ 'breakpoints': 'xs', ... },
{ },
{ },
{ 'breakpoints': 'xs', ... },
{ 'breakpoints': 'xs sm', ... },
{ 'breakpoints': 'xs sm md', ... }
]
});
The value for this option can also be a promise object that resolves supplying an array of the actual column options allowing you to easily load configuration from the server asynchronously.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"columns": jQuery.get("//example.com/columns.json")
});
});
An object containing components to load for only this instance of the plugin.
{}
By default there are no custom components so the plugin only loads those that have been registered through the static FooTable.components.register()
method.
To supply components through data attributes you must follow valid JSON syntax including quoted property names.
The string supplied must be a named function, in the below example it is "YourCustomFilteringComponent"
.
<table data-components='{ "components": { "filtering": "YourCustomFilteringComponent" } }'>
...
</table>
The below shows how to supply the value directly through the options. When supplying a component through the options you can simply give the function pointer as the value for the option as seen below however the plugin will try to retrieve the function if only provided the name as a string.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"components": {
"filtering": YourCustomFilteringComponent
}
});
});
FooTable.components.register()
method. So in the above
examples the original filtering component would be replaced with YourCustomFilteringComponent
.
The text to display if the table contains no rows.
"No Results"
To supply this option through data attributes you must specify the attribute on the table
element.
<table data-empty="There are no rows">
...
</table>
The below shows how to supply the value directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"empty": "There are no rows"
});
});
Whether or not to expand the first rows details.
false
When set to true
this will automatically expand the first row of the table when displayed on a device that hides any columns.
To supply this option through data attributes you must specify the attribute on the table
element.
<table data-expand-first="true">
...
</table>
The below shows how to supply the value directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"expandFirst": true
});
});
If you want to have multiple rows expanded by default please take a look at the row expanded
option.
Whether or not to all rows details.
false
When set to true
this will automatically expand all rows of the table when displayed on a device that hides any columns.
To supply this option through data attributes you must specify the attribute on the table
element.
<table data-expand-all="true">
...
</table>
The below shows how to supply the value directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"expandAll": true
});
});
If you want to have multiple rows expanded by default please take a look at the row expanded
option.
The function used to retrieve the width used during breakpoint calculations.
null
If no function is supplied the plugin falls back to using it's own internal functions to calculate the width depending on the value of the useParentWidth
option.
The below examples show what the internal function would look like implemented through this option.
To supply the function through data attributes it must be defined as a named JavaScript function with the name supplied as the attribute value.
function getWidth(ft){
if (ft.o.useParentWidth == true) return ft.breakpoints.getParentWidth();
return ft.breakpoints.getViewportWidth();
}
<table data-get-width="getWidth">
...
</table>
The below shows how to supply this function directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"getWidth": function(ft){
if (ft.o.useParentWidth == true) return ft.breakpoints.getParentWidth();
return ft.breakpoints.getViewportWidth();
}
});
});
The first argument (ft
) passed to this function is the current instance of the plugin requesting the width.
An object containing event names and handlers to bind to the table.
This simply binds events to the table ensuring that the various components start up events such as preinit.ft.table
or init.ft.table
are bound before they are raised.
This option is an object in which the keys represent one or more space separated events and the values represent a handler function to be called for those events.
null
The below shows supplying the object directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"on": {
"init.ft.table": function(e, ft){
// bind to the plugin initialize event to do something
}
}
});
});
Which is the equivalent to writing it like the below, the call to initialize footable occurs after binding the events or else you risk any start up event handlers not being called.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').on({
"init.ft.table": function(e, ft){
// bind to the plugin initialize event to do something
}
}).footable();
});
There is no static content equivalent to the this option, it must be supplied directly through the options.
An array of simple objects containing the row data and/or options.
[]
If no rows are supplied the value of the empty option will be displayed.
When supplying rows through static content the tr
elements of the table
or tbody
are parsed using the column options
into an array of row objects.
<table class="table">
...
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>Dennise</td>
<td>Fuhrman</td>
<td>High School History Teacher</td>
<td>November 8th 2011</td>
<td>July 25th 1960</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>2</td>
<td>Elodia</td>
<td>Weisz</td>
<td>Wallpaperer Helper</td>
<td>October 15th 2010</td>
<td>March 30th 1982</td>
</tr>
...
</table>
To supply row options simply apply the CSS classes or attributes directly to the tr
element.
<table class="table">
...
<tr class="your-css-class" data-expanded="true">
<td>...</td>
...
</tr>
...
</table>
To supply cell options simply apply the CSS classes or attributes directly to the td
element.
<table>
<tr>
<td class="your-css-class">1</td>
<td>John</td>
<td>Smith</td>
<td>Salesman</td>
<td data-value="1320727711718">October 15th 2010</td>
<td data-value="-297779282564">March 30th 1982</td>
</tr>
...
</table>
When supplying rows directly through the options the property names on the row object must match up to the names of the columns.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"columns": [
{ "name": "id", ... },
{ "name": "firstName", ... },
{ "name": "lastName", ... },
{ "name": "jobTitle", ... },
{ "name": "started", ... },
{ "name": "dob", ... }
],
"rows": [
{ "id": ..., "firstName": ..., "lastName": ..., "jobTitle": ..., "started": ..., "dob": ... },
{ "id": ..., ... },
...
]
});
});
To supply row options through JavaScript you must define your row as a simple object containing two properties,
options
and value
, where the value
property contains the actual row data.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"rows": [{
"options": {
"expanded": true,
"classes": "your-css-class"
},
"value": {
"id": 1,
"firstName": "Dennise",
"lastName": "Fuhrman",
"jobTitle": "High School History Teacher",
"started": "November 8th 2011",
"dob": "July 25th 1960"
}
},{
...
}]
});
});
To supply cell options through JavaScript you must define your cell as a simple object containing two properties,
options
and value
, where the value
property contains the actual cell data.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"rows": [{
"id": {
"options": {
"classes": "your-css-class"
},
"value": 1
},
"firstName": "Dennise",
"lastName": "Fuhrman",
"jobTitle": "High School History Teacher",
"started": "November 8th 2011",
"dob": "July 25th 1960"
},{
...
}]
});
});
Row and cell options may be used at the same time as seen below.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"rows": [{
"options": {
"expanded": true,
"classes": "your-css-class"
},
"value": {
"id": {
"options": {
"classes": "your-css-class"
},
"value": 1
},
"firstName": "Dennise",
"lastName": "Fuhrman",
"jobTitle": "High School History Teacher",
"started": "November 8th 2011",
"dob": "July 25th 1960"
}
},{
...
}]
});
});
The value for this option can also be a promise object that resolves supplying an array of the actual row objects allowing you to easily load data from the server asynchronously.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"rows": jQuery.get("//example.com/rows.json")
});
});
Whether or not to display a header row in the table.
true
To supply this option through data attributes you must specify the attribute on the table
element.
<table data-show-header="false">
...

The below shows how to supply the value directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"showHeader": false
});
});
For more information on using this option please see the Table with no header example.

If the event.target
property matches the selector the row will be toggled. With the default selector any clicks directly on the row, a cell in the row or the FooTable toggle element will trigger the toggling of the row.
To supply this option through data attributes you must specify the attribute on the table
element.
<table data-toggle-selector=".footable-toggle">

The below shows how to supply this value directly through the options.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"rows": [{
"id": {
"options": {
"style": {
"backgroundColor": "blue"
}
},
"value": ...
},
"firstName": ...
}]
});
});
The cells underlying data value.
null
To supply basic values you simply provide the value as the contents of the cell and let the column parser
retrieve it.
<table>
..
<tr>
<td>1</td>
...
</tr>
...
</table>
To be able to provide a different value to what is supplied in the cells contents you apply the data-value
attribute directly on the cell and let the column
formatter
turn the value into the cell contents.
<table>
..
<tr>
<td data-value="1"><!-- the formatter result --></td>
...
</tr>
...
</table>
This is supplied as a property value on a row object.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"rows": [{
"id": 1
},{
...
}]
});
});
To supply options through JavaScript you must define your cell as a simple object containing two properties, options
and value
,
where the value
property contains the actual cell data.
jQuery(function($){
$('.table').footable({
"rows": [{
"id": {
"options": {
"style": ...
},
"value": 1
}
},{
...
}]
});
});
