You need to supply more information.
What do you mean by "a serverside table"? If you have a database table it should already have an auto-incrementing "id" field.
What do you mean by "highlight when i am search on it"?

well you know,the one that use ajax and json,so that it will take the data from database,but there's a problem,i want to add new column,not from the database,but from the datatables,when i add new table header,there's a warning that says "dataTables warning: table id=example - Requested unknown parameter '14' for row 0, column 14.",and what i mean highlight is that when i am search on the datatables you will get the result based on the keywords that you type,but it doesn't highlight,so i hear there's a new plugin called "mark.js" that can help your search result highlighted,but i can't use that

@tangerine was asking for clarification of if you are using client-side or server-side processing - see the manual for information on them.

To answer your question, have you included a search highlighting plug-in such as this one?

Can you please link to a test case showing the issue so we can help to resolve it. You say you can't use mark.js - why not? The forum rules ask for a test case so we can get all the information we need in order to be able to offer some help.

so this is just pieces of my code

    <script type= 'text/javascript'>
        $(document).ready(function () {
            var t = $('#example').DataTable({
                "processing": true,
                "mark":true,
                "serverSide": true,
                "order": [[ 4,"desc" ]],
                "columnDefs": [
            {
                "targets": [ 1 ],
                "visible": false,
                "searchable": false
             }],
                "ajax": { "url" :"http://localhost/code/index.php/min/cd" }   

              });

             $("#clik").click(function(){
              swal({
              title: 'Peringatan!',
              text: "Apakah kamu yakin ingin keluar?",
              type: 'warning',
              showCancelButton: true,
              confirmButtonColor: '#3085d6',
              cancelButtonColor: '#d33',
              confirmButtonText: 'Yes!'
        }).then(function () {
            location.href="http://localhost/code/index.php/login/logout"
        })
        })
        });

    </script>
