I'm trying to implement modals on my datatable so I'm getting the above errors and I'm failing to view my datatable and show the modal

    The error is reporting "jQuery is not defined". Have you included the jQuery library? That's a dependency for DataTables.

    I see you provided a Fiddle, so thank you for that! I took a look and made three changes:

    1. You were including DataTables and other software from our CDN builder, but also individual files. Including DataTables first, which is why you got the error you were. I removed the individual files.
    2. You are using Responsive, so I've added Responsive to the CDN builder url.
    3. There was a <script> tag in the JSFiddle Javascript section, which was causing a syntax error.

    With those three changes the table renders: https://jsfiddle.net/s360odq4/ . It gives an Ajax error of course, but hopefully it will get you going.
