    Just want to clarify. I want to capture the event from the server.

    thanks again

    The event from the server? But it is the client that triggers the event and the server replies to it. Perhaps fnDrawCallback will do what you want. If not, please explain your use case further.

    Sorry about it.

    What im trying to do is to separate the process of 'pagination' from the 'sort' process when the server receives the call.

    Is there any way or any flag which i can use from the server to know if the client request is a sort process?

    thank you..

    No - if you are using server-side processing (which you indicate in your first post), then the server much always do filtering, paging and sorting. There is not a separate request for each type.
