+			<p>It can be quite useful at times to provide the user with the option to select rows in a DataTable. In this example we use standard jQuery 'click' events to add a class to table rows to indicate that they have been selected. Note that we use <i>oTable.$()</i> when working with rows in the table to ensure that all rows are considered, regardless of paging and filtering.</p>
