Hi

Thanks for the quick response.

Looked at the example and it mentions it can detect four different attributes but as far as I can see the example does't show how to set them.

I would like to be able to add custom data-* attributes. There is a mention about using the columns.render (https://datatables.net//forums/discussion/comment/74121/#Comment_74121) but again not really a specific example and I'm still a bit of a novice!

The examples are shown in the HTML - look under the HTML tab on the examples page.

Ah I see in the example the table is created and **then **enhanced by datatables. I'm using ajax and datatables to create the table and want to add the attributes as datatables creates the table.

Use createdRow, columns.createdCell or rowCallback.
