Solution

  • There isn't an option in default options object. However you can call fnPageChange function on datatable to set the pagenumber.

    var table = $('#data_table').dataTable();
    table.fnPageChange(2,true);
    

    Where 2 is the page number and the second parameter asks datatable to redraw.
