in DataTables
Hi,
I have a piece of code that handles different DataTables.
I'd like it to behave differently if a DataTable has ajax functionality enabled, or not.
For example I'd send an .ajax.reload() to a DataTable that can handle it, or just clear it if it doesnt have ajax configured in its initialization settings.
So, is there a way to determine if a DataTable has ajax functionality ?
Thanks

Hi @Nite01 ,
The
init()
api method might do what you want here. It returns the object that was used to initialise the table so you can check that.Thanks,

You could call
ajax.json()
- this returns the last JSON received. If that isundefined
, you can safely assume the table isn't using JSON.Colin
