How to update DataTable with update values without redraw?

KTrentLR

I have a table that a user can make updates to and javascript makes updates to various values in the table based on what the user is doing. However, once the new values are added/changed by the user or javascript, the table does not sort columns by the new values, it assumes the old values are still there. How can I let the DataTable know to update (scrape) the new values and know there are new values and use them when sorting the table without redrawing the table, and thus keeping all the current pagination, searching and sorting options? All of the data changes are being done directly to the DOM not to the DataTable object.
