Is there any possibility to redraw a table without triggering the AJAX request in server mode?

Hi!
I have a tabs widget (jquery-ui tabs) with a table in each corresponding panel, and I load them on page load. The table in the first tab panel is displayed OK. However, when I switch to other tabs, columns are not displayed properly. If I issue a draw() then columns are shown OK but I notice that an AJAX request is sent. I tried passing different options to draw() without success.

Thank you!

If you're calling .draw() just to make the headers line up then there's an alternative, call table.columns.adjust() instead, it's job is to recalculate the column header widths, which I believe does not call draw(). Server side mode will always cause an ajax call in serverside mode when draw() is called.

It worked like a charm. Thank you very much!
