  Hi,

  When you override the built in Ajax call that Editor makes by providing your own function to the ajax option you must call either the success or error callbacks that are passed into the function. Otherwise Editor can't know that the request is complete.

  In your code above you don't have any of the arguments being passed into the function shown - update it to be ajax: function ( method, url, data, success, error ).

  Hi Allan,

  Thanks, that worked. I do have a follow up and newbie question though. I create the success and error functions but they are not being called. The editor screen is closing and the edit is taking effect, but the success and error functions are not called

  tableEditor = new jQuery.fn.dataTable.Editor(
              {
                  ajax:  function()
                  {
                      jQuery.ajax(
                      {  
                          type: 'POST',
                          url:  '/wp-content/AJAX/EditorSubmit.php',
                          dataType: 'json',
                          data: {'AJAX_Data2Submit':DataToSubmit,'AJAX_groupid':GIDField, 'AJAX_TFT': TFTSubmitArray, 'AJAX_TCT': TCTSubmitArray, 'AJAX_NewLDates':NewLArray, 'AJAX_MaxTFT': NewMaxTFT, 'AJAX_MaxTCT': NewMaxTCT, 'AJAX_MaxJN': NewMaxJN},
                          success: function(d)
                          {
                              success(d); 
                          },
                          error: function (xhr, error, thrown)
                          {
                               error(xhr,error,thrown);
                          }
                      });
                      },
                  table: '#LogTable',
                  idSrc:  24,    
              });
  OTHER CODE GOES HERE
         
  
      function success(data)
      {
          alert('Entry was modified successfully');
      }
      function error(x,b,c)
      {
          alert('XHR:' +  xhr + ' - ERROR: '+error + ' - Thrown: '+ thrown );
      }

  Never mind, I figured it out. My function declaration was wrong

  Thanks for your help Allan!

      var Success = function(data)
      {
          alert('Entry was modified successfully');
      }
      var Error = function(x,b,c)
      {
          alert('XHR:' +  xhr + ' - ERROR: '+error + ' - Thrown: '+ thrown );
      }
