B4J Question [WebApp] DataTable Select row and download

[Fabrice La]

In my [WebApp] I have Datatable set with:

$('#tblfiles').dataTable( {
"bFilter": true,
"bPaginate": true,
"bLengthChange": true,
"bSort": true,
"bInfo": true,
"bAutoWidth": true,
"bProcessing": true
});

and this Datatable is filed with files list.

1) When I passe the mouse over the Datatable the cussor is "text" and the row does not change aspect but when click I can select the row and return data.
How to modify that ?

2) When I click on the row I have the file name.
How to dowload it like it was a link ?

Not sure about the first question. About the second question, you should use WebUtils.RedirectTo to start the download. This will probably cause the WebSocket to disconnect (try it).

A more complicated solution involves creating an iframe and then downloading the file from the iframe: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4545311/download-a-file-by-jquery-ajax

Actually a better option will be to download the file by opening a new tab. This way the websocket will stay connected.

Do something like:

ws.Eval("window.open(arguments[0])", Array(<file link>))

Thank-you

ws.Eval("window.open(arguments[0])", Array(<file link>))

Works
