I have the button Copy, CSV, EXCEL, PDF, Print on my table.

the Copy and CSV button do not work for some reason. All other buttons work fine.

My extensions:

        <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/buttons/1.0.3/css/buttons.dataTables.min.css"/>

The tables are created dynamically and placed into a div container (set up ahead of time). My creation code:

        $(document).ready(function() {
                var columns = [];
                var prop = data.features[0].properties;
                    for (var i in prop) {
                        columns.push({data: 'properties.' + i, title: i});
                        } 
                            
                            
                            
                var btnPart = '<button class="accordion"><b>' + 'Selection ' + tableCount.toString() + '</b>: ' + activeOverlay.toString().toUpperCase()+ '</button>';
                var panelPart = '<div class="panel" id="panel' + panelCount.toString() + '">';          
                var tabContPart = '<div class="container" id="tableContainer' + tableContainerCount.toString() +'">';
                var tablePart = '<table id="featureTable' + tableCount.toString() +  '" class="display" width="100%"><thead></thead>                                <tfoot></tfoot></table></div></div></div>';            
                    $('#accordionContainer').append(btnPart + panelPart + tabContPart + tablePart);
                var newTable = '#featureTable' + tableCount.toString();
                                    $(newTable).DataTable( {
                                        data: data.features,   //get the data under features
                                        columns: columns,
                                            dom: 'Bfrtip',
                                        buttons: [
                                            'copy', 'csv', 'excel', 'pdf', 'print'
                                        ],
                                       destroy: true
                                    } );                           
                            tableContainerCount++;
                            tableCount++;
                            panelCount++;

    It looks lke you are loading the tabletools version of copy and csv. These are retired per this document:
    https://datatables.net/extensions/tabletools/

    Instead you will need to load either the html5 (recommneded) or flash buttons JS. See these pages:
    https://datatables.net/extensions/buttons/built-in

    The version should match the other buttons: 1.3.1.
