Hi, i'm setting up DataTables for the first time.
I included it in the bottom of my page using:
[code]


$(document).ready(function(){
$('#tSorted').dataTable();
});
[/code]

My table can be viewed here: http://tinkerbin.com/McMIio6P

I get an error saying a.aoColumns[c] is undefined ?
Please help me, thanks for reading. :)

Greetings

    There are more columns in the tbody (7) than there are in the header (6).

    Hi allan,

    http://debug.datatables.net/irumak


    here you can see debug info... If am using only 6 TD s that works fine but not works for more than 6 TDs

    Please help me
  • allanallan Posts: 61,446Questions: 1Answers: 10,054 Site admin
    Right enough, you are using only 6 TDs, but you are also using aoColumns which defines six columns. If you change the number of columns in the HTML, you must also change aoColumns .

    Please ... where can i change "aoColumns" ? where its defines ?
  • bibin71554bibin71554 Posts: 10Questions: 0Answers: 0
    Is "aoColumns" hardcoded some where?
  • allanallan Posts: 61,446Questions: 1Answers: 10,054 Site admin
    Its in your initialisation code wherever that is. You mention you are using a template, so I guess it is in the template.

    To retrieve the DataTables object for this table, pass no arguments or see the docs for bRetrieve and bDestro"

    DataTable really good , thanks for your job
  • allanallan Posts: 61,446Questions: 1Answers: 10,054 Site admin
    Not sure how much I can help here - don't initialise DataTables twice, like the warning message is telling you. Why are you trying to initialise it twice?
  • bibin71554bibin71554 Posts: 10Questions: 0Answers: 0
    Allen Its solved .... now everything works fine !! i just removed alert message from datatableJS :)
  • allanallan Posts: 61,446Questions: 1Answers: 10,054 Site admin

    Hi Allan,

    I'v got a similar problem: Firefox: FireBug: "TypeError: a.aoColumns[c] is undefined".

    In the thead I've got one th with colspan="2". If I add no tbody, I get no errors. But if there is a tbody with some td's, I get the error...

    Thank you.

    There must be at least one unique header cell for each column. Otherwise sorting can't be applied to individual columns.

    Pity :(
    So if you have one or more column(s) that will not be sorted, you've got a problem...
