Enum has absolutely no effects

Alex67000

Hi I try to use the enum plugin but it has no effect (sorting is automatically)

http://live.datatables.net/fagezevi/3/watch?html,js,console,output

When I put for example sortable:false for :
"columnDefs": [
{ type: 'enum', "sortable": false, targets: 1 }
],
It's not sortable. So the problem comes from enum.

Any help appreciated!

You are initialising like so:

$('#lfp_table').dataTable( {
...

but your HTML table id is "table".

After you fix that, you'll find you need to deal with some other errors.

You are right, I wanted to change the id names (to make it more simple) but I missed to change it for the one you said.

I've find where comes the problem : it's when I use :

"serverSide": true,
"ajax": "datatables/scripts/server_processing.php"

otherwise there's no problem and enum works well...
I tested it with a table without this two things (with the table directly in the HTML file and not loaded by server_processing.php)

"serverSide": true,

You are using server-side processing. Therefore sorting and filtering are done at the server (the whole point of server-side processing :-) ) and a client-side sorting function will have absolutely no effect!

If you are using server-side processing and want to modifying the sorting, you need to modify whatever server-side script you are using.
