I'm new to rails and datatables and trying to understand how to connect the data to the editor.

I'm guessing the line i need to update is: "ajaxUrl": "php/browsers.php" but cant seem to find any documentation on how to do this with rails.

Can anyone point me in the right direction. Thanks!

    You are absolutely correct that is the line on the client-side that would need to be modified to point at your RoR server-side data controller.

    There isn't any documentation that is unique to Rails at the moment for Editor, but the documentation for the client-server communication protocol that Editor uses is available here, which allows any server-side environment to work with the Editor client-side library (it just needs to support this protocol):
