if ($.fn.DataTable.isDataTable(tableName)) {
    table.destroy();
    $(tableName).empty();
}

table = $(tableName).DataTable({
        buttons: [
        {
            extend: 'csv' 
        },
        {
            extend: 'excel'
        },
        {
            extend: 'pdf'
        },
        {
            extend: 'print',
            title: printHeading,
            autoPrint: false,
        }
        ],

        fixedHeader: true,
        sorting: false,
        scrollX: true,
        searching: false,
        paging: false,
        data: tData,
        columns: tHead
    });

table.buttons().container()
.appendTo( $('#export'));

the table variable is null/undefined only on the mobile version of chrome, how do i solve this?

Maybe you can change:

table.destroy();

To;

$(tableName).DataTable().destroy();

Yup - beyond that, we'd need a link to a test case that shows the full code.
