Updating a cell of a dynamically created datamodel

sfeu

Hey,

i am filling my empty datatable dynamically during runtime using the fnAddData method. This works well.
But as soon as i try to update a cell data using fnUpdate with col and row index i got an exception:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '_aData' of undefined jquery.dataTables.js:782
_fnSetCellData jquery.dataTables.js:782
DataTable.fnUpdate jquery.dataTables.js:5999
(anonymous function)

Here is an example:


$(document).ready(function() {
$('#dynamic').html( '' );
var t = $('#example').dataTable( {
"aoColumns": [
{ "sTitle": "Engine" },
{ "sTitle": "Browser" },
{ "sTitle": "Platform" },
{ "sTitle": "Version", "sClass": "center" },
{
"sTitle": "Grade",
"sClass": "center",

}
]
} );
var row = t.fnAddData(['Other browsers','All others','-','-','U']);
t.fnUpdate( "Misc", row, 0 );

if a use fnUpdate on a prefilled tables is works perfectly. Only if try to update a table that is filled using
fnAddData i get this exception.

Anyone can help me with this problem?

ok, i found the problem:

fnAddData always returns an array. Thus, the array in the row variable causes the trouble in fnUpdate.

Bug report can be closed ;-)

Anyway, maybe it is worth to add a small textual hint for this exception as it seems to occur always if the data is malformed.

Cheers
