How to set maximum width for a specific column in jQuery DataTables

Question

How to set the maximum width for one specific column, all other columns should be automatically set. I tried the code below, but it does not work, as I think the max-width attribute is missing

$('#table').dataTable({ 'paging': false, 'info': false, 'searching': false, 'columnDefs': [ {'max-width': '320px', 'targets': 'my-column'} ], }); 

Answer 1

Try something like this

max-width specify percentage of width

target option specify field index

 $('#table').dataTable({ 'paging': false, 'info': false, 'searching': false, 'columnDefs': [ {'max-width': '20%', 'targets': 0} ], });
