DataTable init : list of "complex" object.

nicopulse

Hi,

1) I try to pass a "complex" list of JSON object at the data source but that don't work... my table is blank and I have THIS ERROR :
Requested unknown parameter 'firstname' for row 0. For more information about this error, please see http://datatables.net/tn/4

MY JS CODE :

$('#contact-list').dataTable( {
                            "processing": true,
                            "data": datatab,
                            "columns": [
                                { "data": "firstname" },
                                { "data": "lastname" },
                                { "data": "phone" },
                                { "data": "address.city" },
                                { "data": "relationship.name" }
                            ]
                        }); 

2) My JSON structure :

[  
   {  
      "phone":"0600000000",
      "address":{  
         "street":"Rue du Loup",
         "city":"Bordeaux",
         "zip":"33000"
      },
      "relationship":{  
         "id":"34f221c5-458c-40ec-a8a3-49b4138ee9f0",
         "name":"Amis"
      },
      "id":"3d1f9c4e-514f-4759-93b6-f435092ce670",
      "firstname":"Nico",
      "lastname":"Las"
   },
   {  
      "phone":"0700000000",
................

Huum I also want the ID not be visible but only use on clic button for example.

I use console of chrome but it's really difficult to debug js... I'm a student, don't blame me :)
Can you help to solve this error ?

That looks like it should work okay. Can you please link to a test case showing the issue, or use the DataTables debugger, as per the forum rules.
