AutoFill 3.0.0-beta.1

DataTables CDN files for AutoFill 3.0.0-beta.1. This software was originally released on 6th April, 2026.

Release notes

This release of AutoFill updates the software to be fully compatible with DataTables 3, and matches the core library in that it no longer has any dependency on jQuery. Its only dependency now is DataTables core.

New

  • Remove jQuery dependency from AutoFill
  • Rewritten in Typescript
  • Improved styling integration with the styling frameworks. Popover now looks like it is a modal from the host styling library.
  • Expanded CSS variables for styling AutoFill

Updates

  • CSS prefix is dtaf- for consistency with the other DataTables extensions. If you had custom styling that used dt-autofill- class names, you will need to update the CSS rules.
  • Positioning of the popover box when there is a choice of options is now done with flexbox
  • ES6 target

Fixes

  • Throw an error if columns.editField is given as an array

Examples

  • Update to remove jQuery initialisation version of each example, and focus on the Vanilla JS code for simplicity and consistency throughout the DataTables examples.

Docs

  • Consistent naming for DataTables types
  • Updated for the more consistent naming convention used for DataTables' defined types in DT3
