Changing the params on an AJAX sourced table

jLinux

I have a table that uses the ajax feature to retrieve the data. Above the table, there's a search form, and when someone submits a search, I wanted to have the DataTable re-query the AJAX source, but with different parameters.

I see there's an ajax.params() feature, but that looks like its only for retrieving the parameters, not setting new ones.

It looks like I can do something like:

table.ajax.url( 'ajax-data.php?company_id=1291' ).load();

But I hate having to do that, its just... UGLY!

Thanks!

ajax.data is the way to send parameters to the server. You can have it as a function that will use a variable that has been set somewhere else.
