How to switch to a particular page using jQuery DataTables

Question

I have a page in which i want to give the users the option to go to a particular page .

The default pagination is there which enables the user to traverse in the range of 5 pages .

But i want to give an option to switch to any page_number that they input in an input text field .

I have tried using t.fnPageChange(page_number) , but this gives me this error .

can you show an example link so that we can check and let you know — Death-is-the-real-truth

According to the datatables API, you may want to use page instead of fnPageChange; if you extracted page_number from a textfield, it will probably be a string, and the library is trying to interpret it as an action instead of a number.

Remember to transform the page into an integer before passing it to page():

int_page_number = parseInt(page_number);
t.page(int_page_number);
