jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxDataTable is used for reading and displaying the data from the HTML Table. This is also used to display data from various data sources like XML, JSON, Array, CSV, or TSV.

The setColumnProperty() method is used to set a property value of a specified column.

Syntax:

$("#dataTable").jqxDataTable('setColumnProperty', 
        dataField, propertyName, propertyValue);

Parameters: This method accepts three parameters that are illustrated below:

  • dataField: This is the specified column name for which the property value is going to be set.
  • propertyName: This is the property name for the specified column.
  • propertyValue: This is the property value that will be set against the property name.
