Inital table data via ajax

bernhardbucher

Hi,
i am currently trying to initalize my table but i dont really get it. I want to make a ajax request to a Java Servlet and get a JSON in return. With this JSON i want to load my table and display it on a jsp page. I am currently returning this JSON:
{"data": [{"firstname": "Hugo","lastname": "Hinterseer"},{"firstname": "Franz","lastname": "Becker"}]}

Can someone provide me with a jquery function which takes this json from a Java Servlet and feeds a datatable? If there needs to be some specific HTML Code please tell me. I dont really get how this works with datatable EDITOR.
Stay tunded,
Bernhard

Hi @bernhardbucher ,

This example here should get you going - see the Ajax tab for the data. Are you planning on using Editor to update the table?

Cheers,
