TableTools example

TableTools example - jQuery UI theming

# Preamble

Like DataTables, TableTools can be styled by a jQuery UI theme. The required classes for the theming with TableTools are added automatically when the bJQueryUI option is detected from DataTables. This example shows that in action, and also defines a button collection to show the themeing there.
