An experiment to cofigure jtable from a html table.

Jtable extension jquery.jtable.attributableconfig.js

<table id="OrdersJTable" data-jt-title="Orders List" data-jt-list-action="Home/Orders">
    <tr>
        <th data-jt-list="false">OrderId</th>
        <th data-jt-width="40%" data-jt-column="ShipName">Firm</th>
        <th data-jt-width="20%">Ship Country</th>
        <th data-jt-type="date">Order Date</th>
        <th data-jt-type="checkbox">Shipped</th>
    </tr>
</table>
<br/>
<table id="OrdersJTable2" data-jt-title="Orders List 2" data-jt-list-action="Home/Orders">
    <tr>
        <th data-jt-key="true" data-jt-list="false" data-jt-column="OrderId">OrderId</th>
        <th data-jt-width="40%" data-jt-column="ShipName">Ship Name</th>
        <th data-jt-width="20%" data-jt-column="ShipCountry">Ship Country</th>
        <th data-jt-type="date" data-jt-column="OrderDate">Order Date</th>
        <th data-jt-type="checkbox" data-jt-true="True" data-jt-false="False">Shipped</th>
    </tr>

Asp.net MVC

public class HomeController : Controller
{

  [HttpPost]
  public ActionResult Orders()
  {
      return  Json(new {Result = "OK", Records = GetOrders().Take(10)});
  }
}

JSON Result

{
    "Result": "OK",
    "Records": [
        { "OrderId": 10, "ShipName": "Ship 10", "ShipCountry": "Pakistan", "OrderDate": "\/Date(1475067648987)\/", "Shipped": true },
        { "OrderId": 11, "ShipName": "Ship 11", "ShipCountry": "Pakistan", "OrderDate": "\/Date(1475154048987)\/", "Shipped": false },
        { "OrderId": 12, "ShipName": "Ship 12", "ShipCountry": "Pakistan", "OrderDate": "\/Date(1475240448987)\/", "Shipped": true },
        { "OrderId": 13, "ShipName": "Ship 13", "ShipCountry": "Pakistan", "OrderDate": "\/Date(1475326848987)\/", "Shipped": false },

    });

jtable with paging

<table id="OrdersJTable3" data-jt-title="Order with paging" data-jt-paging="true"   data-jt-list-action="Home/OrdersWithPaging">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>OrderId</th>
            <th>Ship Name</th>
            <th>Ship Country</th>
            <th data-jt-type="date">Order Date</th>
            <th data-jt-type="checkbox" data-jt-true="Shipped" data-jt-false="Not Shipped">Shipped</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
  </table>

Asp.net MVC

public class HomeController : Controller
{
  [HttpPost]
  public ActionResult OrdersWithPaging(int jtStartIndex, int jtPageSize)
  {
      var order = GetOrders();
      //var startIndex =  jtStartIndex+jtPageSize;
      return Json(
          new { Result = "OK"
          , Records = GetOrders().Skip(jtStartIndex).Take(jtPageSize)
          , TotalRecordCount = order.Count });
  }
}

Adding jtable other options (functions/events)

Html

<table id="OrderJtableWithOtherOptions"  data-jt-title="Orders List 2" data-jt-list-action="Home/Orders">
    <tr>
        <th data-jt-list="false">OrderId</th>
        <th data-jt-column="ShipName">Ship Name</th>
        <th>Ship Country</th>
        <th data-jt-type="date">Order Date</th>
        <th data-jt-type="checkbox" data-jt-true="Done" data-jt-false="In progress">Shipped</th>
    </tr>
</table>
