I am using Jquery datatable (Server-side) to show the contents of my table. I want to edit of the columns to render some html elements (span and a). However, instead of rendering to a link for example, it returns the raw code. This is my view
<table>
<tr>
<th>League</th>
<th>Match</th>
</tr>
</table>
$('.server_table').DataTable({
"processing": true,
"serverSide": true,
"ajax": "{{ route('getdata') }}",
"columns":[
{ "data": "league" },
{ "data": "match" },
]
});
My Controller
$query = DB::select(); //Runs query
return Datatables::of($query)
->editColumn('match', function($query){
$ratings = "default";
return '<span data-toggle="modal" data-target="#'.$query->user_id.'"><a onmouseover="bigImg(this)" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Click to view user\'s last 5 ratings!">'.$query->username. '['.ucfirst($ratings).']'.'</a>
</span>';
})->make(true)
