fnGetPosition is not a function

xrcr9709

Hello,

Here's what my code does:

[code]var dataTable = $([some-DOM-table]);
dataTable.fnGetPosition([some-DOM-tr-jQuery-object]);[/code]

I get error 'fnGetPosition is not a function'.

I have included 'jquery.dataTables.min.js' and 'jquery.dataTables.columnFilter.js'. I'm a still missing a file or what is wrong with my code?

Thank you


PS: I can provide a link to concrete code, this is for a private internal enterprise project.

Have you included jQuery?

Correction to my code:
[code]var dataTable = $([some-DOM-table]).dataTable().columnFilter();
dataTable.fnGetPosition([some-DOM-tr-jQuery-object]);[/code]
I thought that maybe it makes more sense to store the result of .dataTable() in variable, though I'm not sure this is necessary, and I still get the same problem.

How I included jQuery/JavaScript:
[code]


[/code]
'0.js' is what some would have named 'main.js' and is where my code is executed.
By the way all of this works fine except the fnGetPosition() function.

columnFilter (which is 3rd party and not supported here btw) doesn't return a DataTables instance. You want:

[code]
var dataTable = $([some-DOM-table]).dataTable();
dataTable.columnFilter();
dataTable.fnGetPosition([some-DOM-tr-jQuery-object]);
[/code]

I found the problems:
- some part of my code created an equivalent of $($(myDataTable).
- the row object needs to be a DOM object, not a jQuery object.

@allan: actually it works fine with columnFilter();
