Responsive has the ability to display the details that it has hidden in a variety of different ways. Its default is to allow the end user to toggle the the
display by clicking on a row and showing the information in a DataTables child row. At times it can be useful not to require end user interaction to display the
hidden data in a responsive manner, which can be done with the childRowImmediate display type.
Display types are set using the responsive.details.display option which should point to a function that will handle the child row display. The built
in options are available in the $.fn.dataTable.Responsive.display object. See responsive.details.display
for a full list of the options available.
Additionally, the responsive.details.type option is set to be an empty string in this example to disable the user's ability to toggle
the child rows - i.e. in this example the full contents of the table are always visible. This could be removed if you want to retain that ability.
