jQuery version compatibility?

daviderickson

Hi all, we are using jQuery 1.4.2, is it compatible with the 1.8 release train of DataTables? I'd prefer not to have to revalidate the rest of my site by having to upgrade the rest of my libraries to get the latest DataTables.

Thanks!

Yes - jQuery 1.4.2 will work just fine with DataTables. You start to run into limitations with 1.3.x, and it simply won't work with 1.2.x - but the version you have will do just fine.

Great thanks! Might be useful to put this info on the downloads page or somewhere prominent if possible.

allan: noticed the following error from Chrome when doing a refresh on DataTables with JQ 1.4.2:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'jqXHR' of undefined

A couple of things to check - are you using DataTables 1.8.x with the latest fnReloadAjax (it must be passing oSettings as the forth argument to fnServerData). That seems like the most likely thing to me.

Nice catch, that did it. Thanks!
