I'm using basic setup

this.$el.find('#data-provider-table').dataTable();

but table comes with stripes by default (as in http://www.datatables.net/examples/styling/stripe.html example). I want to disable them, but have no idea how to do that. Please help :-) !

I'm on jquery 1.9.4

  • do you have anything that disables the defaults? http://www.datatables.net/examples/styling/no-classes.html – blurfus Nov 19 '14 at 05:19
  • try this `this.$el.find('#data-provider-table').dataTable({asStripClasses:[]});` - it disables it only for the given table. If you want to disable them on all of your pages, all the time, then use the answer by @Bhushan. – blurfus Nov 19 '14 at 05:34
  • @Bhushan doesn't work :-( – Petro Semeniuk Nov 19 '14 at 05:52

this will disable the zebra styling only for the given table on the given page.

If you want to disable them on all of your pages, all the time, then use the answer by @Bhushan.

this.$el.find('#data-provider-table').dataTable({stripeClasses:[]});

UPDATED - See demo

Alternatively, you can use a modified version of the answer by @Bhushan Kawadkar and get more specific selector on your CSS. As in:

#data-provider-table table.dataTable tr.odd{...}

  • Can you share more details @sajushko? I could help you if I had more information... ie. what version of jquery / jquery datatables are you using? the above answer is using a more specific selector (i.e. `#data-provider-table`) which you may or may not have used in your HTML - can you also confirm if you are using this selector or not? – blurfus Apr 04 '16 at 17:34

To remove zebra rows from table you can modify the jquery.dataTables.css

and set below

table.dataTable tr.odd { background-color: white; }// change #E2E4FF to white
table.dataTable tr.even { background-color: white; }

I have set white for odd an even rows, you can choose any color and set the same color to both odd and even trs.

  • Any other hackery I can do to avoid messing with dataTables.css? Ideally I want put overrides into my own css file. – Petro Semeniuk Nov 19 '14 at 05:32
  • you could use your own CSS file and prefix the above two rules with your own `id` element. As in, `#data-provider-table table.dataTable tr.odd{...}` – blurfus Nov 19 '14 at 05:37
  • @ochi more specific css selector worked for me. Can you update your answer and I'll mark as accepted. – Petro Semeniuk Nov 19 '14 at 05:56

You can remove the zebra stripe class names for the rows in the table, using this snipped:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#example').DataTable({
    stripeClasses: []
  });
});

However, if you are using bootstrap css probably you need to use this css:

table.table-striped tbody tr:nth-of-type(odd) {background-color: #f5f5f5;}
table.table-striped tbody tr:nth-of-type(even) {background-color: #f5f5f5;}

Here you have an example: 

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#example').DataTable({
    stripeClasses: []
  });
});
