Hello all,
I'm really delighted to be able to announce the availability of the new DataTables debugger. This debugger is a Javascript bookmarklet which, when run on a page containing a DataTable, will gather information about the table and upload it to the debug server. From there you will be able to view a summary of information about the table and also the full state of the table at the time when the debug bookmarklet was run.
This debugger is intended to assist with support cases for DataTables, particularly in cases where a link to the table in question cannot be posted. It won't directly provide the solution in every situation, but it will certainly assist in debugging any issues that are encountered with DataTables. As such, when posting a question about a specific table and a problem you are facing with it, please run the DataTables debugger on your table and provide the debug code in your support request.
To get started with the debugger just load the debugger home page and save the bookmarklet link to your bookmarks/favourites: http://debug.datatables.net .
I have written a blog entry with further information about the debugger if you are interested in further details: http://datatables.net/blog/DataTables_debugger

Allan

I would like to integrate the debugger in Dandelion-DataTables, e.g. in a dedicated test page that would display all DataTables configurations (initialization code + html, one per request and per DOM id) of the web app.
The test page would allow some basic operations like :
* deleting one configuration, so as soon as the user arrives on a page that uses Dandelion-DataTables, the initialization code will generated once again and then stored
* deleting all (clear entire cache)
* debugging using the DataTables debugger
So, is there a way to use the DataTables debugger otherwise than by using the bookmarklet ?

Also the debugger is open source on github so you are free to modify it if you need.

Thanks!
