Hi.

First I would like to thank you for creating such a great plugin. It's really awesome.

I have a problem with creating a table with thousands of column. The table have, let's say, 6000 columns and only 5 rows. Creating it takes few second, and freezes a web browser. I have found tips about server side processing, but I guess it's for loading rows, not columns. Do you have any idea how to load new columns dynamically after moving the slider, or at least make the database plugin not freezing the browser (add timeouts or something)?

    Currently no - there is no method to add columns after initialisation with DataTables. It is something I want to add in future, but its not currently available. Sorry.
