Is there a way to make colvis button work without reset_index()

[sherry151]

I would really like to have Column visibility work for tables with index columns. Index columns allow for nice formatting using background colors and Pandas styler.

Hi @sherry151 , there is a JavaScript example for how to do this on the datatable documentation: https://datatables.net/reference/button/colvis

You should be able to port it to ITables - use JavaScriptFunction to define the columnText function as in this example: https://mwouts.github.io/itables/formatting.html#colors-based-on-cell-values

I wasn't able to get this working given my limited knowledge of JavaScript. How do I get the column names in JavaScript. I know how to do it in Python but in JS.
