Hi, I ma trying to add an explanation/description to the columns using a tooltip. For instance, "StaffAmount" => array(

            "label" => "StaffAmount",
            "cssStyle" => "text-align:right",
            "type" => "number",
            "decimals" => 2,
            "footer" => "sum",
            "tooltip"=>function($row){
                return "Something for tooltip";
            }

        ),

Label is stall amount, tooltip would describe how it gets calculated. Is this something I can do with the DataTable ? If not per row, can I do this on the header of the table somehow ?

thanks

Perhaps a "title" attribute could help in your case:

DataTables::create(array(
    ...
    "attributes" => [
        "td" => function($row, $colKey, $colMeta) {
            if ($colKey === "StaffAmount") return [
                "title" => "Something for tooltip"
            ];
        }
    ],
    ... 
));

Please try this and let us know if it meets your requirement. Thanks!
