  Hi @chessGuru64 ,

  I don't see why you need this line:

  var rowData = $('#example').DataTable().row($(this).parents('tr')).data();
  

  You've got the data in this earlier line:

  var edit_id = $('#example').DataTable().row( id ).data();
  

  You could use that to populate the edit.

  Cheers,

  Colin

  Yes there probably is an easier way but that was the way I thought of using stackoverflow. The ajax could not be responding for whatever reason on the phone, I will try to add the edit_id manually too before the ajax call:

  var id = $(this).attr("id");;
  var edit_id = $('#example').DataTable().row( id ).data();
  var edit_id = edit_id[0];
  $('#editId').val(edit_id);
