Deleting a row using .row().delete()

timavo

Link to test case: http://live.datatables.net/mapepodu/1/edit
Debugger code (debug.datatables.net): (see test case)
Error messages shown: TypeError: table.row(...).delete is not a function
Description of problem: I am using the first example of .row().delete() (see here) to delete a row by clicking on it and can't get it to work:

var myTable = $('#myTable').DataTable();
 
$('#myTable').on( 'click', 'tbody tr', function () {
    myTable.row( this ).delete();
} );

When I click a row I am getting:

"TypeError: table.row(...).delete is not a function

myTable.row( this ).remove().draw( false ); is working as expected.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @timavo,

As noted at the top of that page, row().delete() requires the Editor extension. Otherwise you will need to use row().remove() .

Hope this helps,
Sandy
