How can i display loading/processing message inside DataTable?

Question

In my application i am using datatables.net

var ticketHistoryDataTable = $(\'#ticketHistoryData\').DataTable({ 
        paging: false,
        data: [],
                 


        

Answer 1

There is way the to display loading message on jQuery DataTable:

$('#myTableId').DataTable({
        "language": {
            'loadingRecords': 'Processing...',
        },

  // 'processing': true,
.
.
})

On above code, // 'processing': true, is commented out, if not there will be two loading messages.

You also can do this way:

$('#myTableId').DataTable({
            "language": {
                'loadingRecords': ' ',
                'processing': 'Loading...'
            },

You can also show the loading spinner:

$('#myTableId').DataTable({
                "language": {
                    "loadingRecords": "\n\
                            \n\
                        Processing ..."
                },
