Data Table

A data table is a dynamic table that allows sorting each column and filtering data. The data table filter box reads all the visible columns  as well as a hidden column that allows inputting custom keywords. Data tables also have built-in pagination. Each page displays 25 records and a user can click through the other pages to see more. The filter box searches the entire table, not just the 25 viewable items.
