Buttons example Semantic UI styling

This example shows DataTables and the Buttons extension being used with the Semantic UI framework providing the styling. The DataTables / Semantic UI integration provides seamless integration for DataTables to be used in a Semantic UI page.

Note that for ease of implementation, the buttons option is specified with a basic set of buttons, and the buttons().container() method then used to insert the buttons into the document. It is possible to use the dom option to insert the buttons like in the DataTables styled examples, but the default dom option used for Semantic UI styling is quite complex and would need to be fully restated.
