Determining wich row was checked MD Datatable

var table = $('#myDataTable').DataTable({/* your initialization stuff*/});

$selected_rows = table.rows({selected:true});
$selected_row_nodes = table.rows({selected:true}).nodes()

// same for rows in search filter
$found_rows = table.rows({'search':'applied'});
$found_rows_nodes = table.rows({'search':'applied'}).nodes();

// do something for each selected rows
table.rows({selected:true}).nodes().each(function(){
    // $(this) = 'tr' element of current row
});

You right. You can find more advanced config on the official docs. @lemons, good solution.

Thanks, I prefer to work with the offical docs and use the build in methods as it gives more freedom when interacting a lot with the tables, especially because of pagination. Anyhow one has to read the the docs, when e.g. trying to sort non ISO8601 date formats, implementing data-range filters, export to excel/pdf, adding a multiselect as filter, etc.
