How do I change the look of the extendedDataTable?

[btj]

I am trying to use the extendedDataTable instead of just the plain dataTable because I need the filter feature... And the filter feature works nice... But how do I change the look of the table?

- I don't want the white background, but transparent?
- The cell does not show all the text, it seems to just drop all the characters after x characters?
- There is an large empty column at the right... I want the table to use the 100% width I have set?


How can I change this?

plain dataTable supports filtering.

use rich classes described in docs

Thats caused by the design. Columns are resizable. So if the sizes defined - cells not stretches to the content.

- There is an large empty column at the right... I want the table to use the 100% width I have set?

This column reserved for resizing functionality.

There is no filterBy attribute on the dataTable according to the Live Demo Tag Information?

Any way to set initial size so all text is shown?

1) columns has such attributes. And it doesn't matter where them used with ext dataTable or with plain.

2) columns provides width attribute.
