jQuery datatables show/hide one field in row

I load a jQuery datatables using JSON. One of the fields in a row is the legend. Basically, I would like to have a "show/hide" legend instead of having the full legend text. What can I do?

Thanks!

Updated with an example: http://jsfiddle.net/fDavN/5592/

Please check code on jsfiddle (quite long)

If you want add this functionality to every row, you should check datatables documentation: show-hide

In my project (server-side processing) I did it by call sDefaultContent (on first column) on aoColumns definition:

"aoColumns": [
    {
       "mDataProp": null,
       "sClass": "control center",
       "sDefaultContent": '<img src="some_image_url">'
    },
    //...
]

and prepare function which append some data to clicked row:

$('#datatables_selector').live( 'click', function () {
    var nTr = this.parentNode;
    var i = $.inArray( nTr, anOpen );
    if ( i === -1 ) {
        $('img', this).attr( 'src', "some_image_url" );
        var nDetailsRow = oTable.fnOpen( nTr, fnFormatDetails(oTable, nTr), 'details' );
        $('div.innerDetails', nDetailsRow).slideDown();
        anOpen.push( nTr );
    }
    else {
        $('img', this).attr( 'src', "some_image_url" );
        $('div.innerDetails', $(nTr).next()[0]).slideUp( function () {
            oTable.fnClose( nTr );
            anOpen.splice( i, 1 );
        } );
    }
} );
function fnFormatDetails( oTable, nTr ){
    var oData = oTable.fnGetData( nTr );
    var sOut = 'some html for input data: <div>, <table> etc';
    return sOut;
}
