jQuery UI theme init :
$(document).ready( function () {
var oTable = $('#example').dataTable( {
"sDom": 'R<"H"lfr>t<"F"ip<',
"bJQueryUI": true,
"sPaginationType": "full_numbers"
} );
} );

If you go in the datatables plugin and edit the html example, it is pretty
instructive and you can see which css is needed for a given output of the
plugin...
