	<description>
		DataTables and its plug-ins can create additional `dt-tag table` elements in the document (for example when scrolling is enabled, the table is split into three individual tables, the header, footer and body in order to provide cross-browser scrolling). However, you may wish to obtain the original table node that belongs to the DataTable. This method, and its singular counterpart, is provided for that purpose.

var tables = $('.dataTable').DataTable( {
	scrollX: "100%"
} );

tables
	.tables()
	.nodes()
	.to$()
	.addClass( 'highlight' );
