RowReorder

The features that DataTables provides can be greatly enhanced by the use of the plug-ins available on this page, which give many new user interaction and configuration options.

Reference
Basic Row Reorder
Note that sorting is enabled on all columns in this example - you may wish to restrict sorting to just the sequence column to help prevent potential user confusion if they reorder when the table ordering is performed on a different column.

Responsive Integration
This example shows RowReorder being used with the Responsive extension for DataTables and also that it provides support for touch inputs to perform a row reorder. Responsive is particularly useful with mobile devices, but can also be useful on desktops where complex data sets are shown in the DataTable.

Reorder Events
Providing the UI to allow end users to reorder a table is only half of the story - likely you will wish to have the changes caused by the end user to effect a database or some other data store.
