Basic table interfering with DataTable

sjw01

I have a page with 4 tables.

Table 1, 2 & 3 - basic tables with a few figures

Table 2 - DataTable

I am trying to add searchable dropdowns to the columns (which I have copied from a working DataTable: http://live.datatables.net/lidequra/21/edit)

The searchable fields are not appearing UNLESS I remove the first table in the code

Is it possible to have non-DataTable tables on the same page as a DataTable?

See example - (I have removed all other tables except the trouble table and the DataTable)

http://live.datatables.net/tupewobu/1/

1. See row below header is empty.
2. Remove Table (#advisor-gp-table) and see the searchable dropdowns appear?

What does this table contain that is triggering this problem?

NOTE: In testing I just realised - table 1 is the only table (excluding DataTable) that has a "thead" in the table
