In my rails app when I load the page with the datatable, everything works great. When i click off of the page with the datatable to a new page and then click the "back" link, it brings me back to the table but without the datatable functionality (no sortable columns, search or pagination). If I then reload, the datatable functionality returns.
This is driving me more than a little crazy. I'm sure its something really stupid that I am missing. Anyone??

Not sure about the Rails environment but typically when Datatables functionality is missing there is a Javascript error. Have you looked at the browser's console for errors?

no errors in console.
If you add a debug statement into where you initialise the table, is that being triggered when you go back?

didn't get there - realized my issue was related to turbolinks - specifically turbolinks 5. This fixed me up : https://gorails.com/episodes/upgrade-to-turbolinks-5
Thanks for posting back - good to hear you have it working now.
