CascadePanes, serverside - Panes not being rebuilt on selection

robsimpson

I've just started implementing serverside processing, with an ajax/python server. I've taken my working client-side prototype, and included these elements in my table = $('#mytable').DataTable({...}) call:

serverMethod: 'POST',
        'ajax': {
            'url':'http://localhost:5000/ajaxfile',
        },

and it everything worked as desired, including SearchPanes. For example, my initial ajax call (on a very noddy two rows of data) returns the searchPanes value:

{
  "options": {
    "Job Level": [
      {
        "count": 1,
        "label": "3: Manager",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "3: Manager"
      },
      {
        "count": 1,
        "label": "5: Officer/Team Member",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "5: Officer/Team Member"
      }
    ],
    "Region": [
      {
        "count": 1,
        "label": "East Midlands",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "East Midlands"
      },
      {
        "count": 1,
        "label": "Wales",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "Wales"
      }
    ]
  }
}

All has gone well until I try to implement cascade functionality. So I think I am successfully generating the correct output:

{
  "options": {
    "Job Level": [
      {
        "count": 1,
        "label": "3: Manager",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "3: Manager"
      },
      {
        "count": 0,
        "label": "5: Officer/Team Member",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "5: Officer/Team Member"
      }
    ],
    "Region": [
      {
        "count": 1,
        "label": "East Midlands",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "East Midlands"
      },
      {
        "count": 0,
        "label": "Wales",
        "total": 1,
        "value": "Wales"
      }
    ]
  }
}

although the selections work, the panes are not being rebuilt to show the updated values and counts.

I'm probably missing something in the documentation, but is there something I have to do client or server-side to trigger a refresh of the panes?

Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,

Are you able to give me a link to your page so I can trace it through please?

I've moved to Editor, and don't have this issue any more.

Many thanks.
