dataTables_empty class should also be available on TR

[gsouf]

When a table is empty there is the following tbody :

<tbody>
   <tr class="odd">
      <td valign="top" colspan="3" class="dataTables_empty">
         Aucune donnée disponible dans le tableau
      </td>
   </tr>
</tbody>

I think it would be reliable to also apply "dataTables_empty" class to the TR too.

What difference does it make? The cell is the only thing in the row? I'm not necessarily disagreeing, I just don't really see the need?

Because in my script i was gessing that the tbody can only contain valid rows.

When i do an operation on each rows :

table.find("tbody tr").each(function(){....});

Then i needed to add an additional logic : checking the td inside the tr to know if the tr is valid.

It's suggest using the DataTables API to get the rows in the table. Specifically rows().

Since rows in my table are clickable, I'm trying to style them as follows:

tbody tr:not(.dataTables_empty) {
    cursor: pointer;
}

The problem of course is that the class is on the TD instead of the TR. Having it on the TR (which seems more intuitive) would allow a pure CSS solution.

EDIT:
OK, I guess td:not(.dataTables_empty) works, at least in this case. Still, the TR seems like the obvious place for this, to me.
