tag in HTML title breaks pdfmake export in jQuery DataTables
I am trying to format how the data is displayed in a jquery DataTable.
If the text is long, I truncate it like below:
{
"data": "col1", "render": function (data, type, row) {
if (type === 'display' && data != null) {
data = data.replace(/<(?:.|\n)*?>/gm, '');
data = data.split("; ").join("<br/>");
if (data.length > 85) {
return '<span class="show-ellipsis" title="'+data+'">' + data.substr(0, 85) + '</span><span class="no-show">' + data.substr(85) + '</span>';
} else {
return data;
}
} else {
return data;
}
}
},
and use the following CSS alongside jquery UI tooltip.
CSS
span.no-show {
display: none;
}
span.show-ellipsis:after {
content: "...";
}
jQuery UI tooltip
<script>
$(function () {
$(document).tooltip({
items: 'span.show-ellipsis',
content: function () {
return $(this).attr('title');
},
position: {
my: "center bottom",
at: "center top-10",
collision: "flip",
using: function (position, feedback) {
$(this).addClass(feedback.vertical)
.css(position);
}
}
});
});
This way it appears nicely in the DataTable,
The screenshot above had <hr> instead of <br/> tag in replace method, but the behavior remains the same. It works fine if I replace with n. When I try to export the pdf, data gets repeated. In particular the data.substr(85) part.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you

It's like your exported PDF does not take the CSS in consideration no?

Yes thedisplay: nonepart. But why does it take it into consideration when the method is called like thisdata = data.split("; ").join("n"); ?
