ERROR: fnSetData is null/undefined

jpesquibel

I keep getting this error. Could somebody please point me in the right direction?

Error: Unable to get value of the property 'fnSetData': object is null or undefined

Here's my references:






Here's my js:

$(document).ready(function() {
$('#tblActivities').dataTable({ "oLanguage": { "sSearch": "Search:" },
"iDisplayLength": 10,
"aaSorting": [[0, "asc"]]});
});

Here's my code-behind: (basically, binding a dataTable to a repeater)

rptrActivities.DataSource = d.Activities_Select(50);
rptrActivities.DataBind();

Here's the markup:






ID
Group
Name
Description
Date & Time
Last Changed






<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ActivityID")%>
<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ActivityType")%>
<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ShortName")%>
<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Descr")%>
<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ActDateTime")%>
<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ModDate")%>










Thanks in advance!

It's official. I'm an R-TARD. I forgot the last two table header columns at the top.




hope this helps another R-TARD like myself.

I think I'll introduce a bit of code which will detect that error and flag a warning when it occurs. Its easy done - I've done it enough times myself...

Hi jpesquibel, your problem is that u have 6 columns to populate in head

1 - ID
2 - Group
3 - Name
4 - Description
5 - Date & Time
6 - Last Changed
but have 8 columns to populate in body

1 - <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ActivityID")%>
2 - <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ActivityType")%>
3 - <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ShortName")%>
4 - <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Descr")%>
5 - <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ActDateTime")%>
6 - <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "ModDate")%>
7 -
8 -

You can create the others 2 columns in head or delete 2 columns in body

I'm getting the same thing. What if you have a table that needs to have a header that spans several columns. There is a sub-header with a th for every column. In that case we use colspan in the first header's th definitions, but there would not be th's for every cell.
