Add the ability to select rows in a jQuery DataTable

To add the ability to select rows in a jQuery DataTable, you can use the select option provided by the DataTables library.

Here's an example of how to add row selection to a DataTable:

$('#myTable').DataTable({
   select: true
});

This will enable row selection for the table with the ID myTable. Once you've added row selection, you can access the selected rows using the rows({selected:true}) method:

var selectedRows = $('#myTable').DataTable().rows({selected:true}).data();

This will return an array of data objects for the selected rows.

You can also handle the select event to perform custom actions when a row is selected:

$('#myTable').on('select.dt', function(e, dt, type, indexes) {
   var selectedRows = dt.rows({selected:true}).data();
   // do something with the selected rows
});
