How to get rid of pagination of jQuery Data Table plug-in?

How can I remove the pagination and show features of a jQuery Data Table ? I only want the searching and sorting features of it and want to get rid the other features. Is there any way?

The sDom option doesn't specifically control pagination. In other words, even with sDom specified, only the first "page" of data is displayed, although all the pagination controls are hidden.

A better way to do this, at least with 1.9x version of DataTables is to specify the bPaginate option.

$(element).dataTable({
    "bPaginate": false
});

This will prevent pagination and will hide pagination controls.

You can do it like this if you are using without jQuery UI themes

$(document).ready( function() {
    $('#example').dataTable( {
      "sDom": 'frt' // only show search.. processing.. and table
    });
});

with jQuery UI Theme

$(document).ready( function() {
    $('#example').dataTable( {
      "sDom": '<"H"f>rt' // only show search.. processing.. and table
    });
});

<"H"lfr>t<"F"ip> == In header put lfr.. table .. then footer put ip

The following options are allowed:

'l' - Length changing

'f' - Filtering input

't' - The table!

'i' - Information

'p' - Pagination

'r' - pRocessing

The following constants are allowed: 'H' - jQueryUI theme "header" classes ('fg-toolbar ui-widget-header ui-corner-tl ui-corner-tr ui-helper-clearfix')

'F' - jQueryUI theme "footer" classes ('fg-toolbar ui-widget-header ui-corner-bl ui-corner-br ui-helper-clearfix')

The following syntax is expected: '<' and '>' - div elements

'<"class" and '>' - div with a class

'<"#id" and '>' - div with an ID

Default: lfrtip (when bJQueryUI is false) or <"H"lfr>t<"F"ip> (when bJQueryUI is true)
