fnCellRender option not working

I am using "sAjaxSource" to render the data from the server. I have few columns. One of the column also renders two links which are dropdown toggle.
ex:
"aoColumns": [
{
'sName':'ID' ,
'mDataProp': 'SYS_ID',
'sTitle': 'C Sys ID',
'bSortable': true,
'aDataSort': true,
'bVisible': true,
'bSortable': false,
'sWidth': "60px",
'sType': 'html',
'mRender': function(data,type,full){
return ""+data +"ViewEdit";
//""+data+"";
},




When I use the TableTools as:
sDom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
"oTableTools": {
"sSwfPath": "/assets/plugins/tables/dataTables/swf/copy_csv_xls_pdf.swf",
"aButtons": [
{
"sExtends": "collection",
"sButtonText": 'Save Data on screen ',
"aButtons": [ "csv", "xls", "pdf" ],
}



the exported csv/pdf file prints the above column as "value+ViewEdit" for ex:"data123ViewEdit" for that particular column.

How can I get rid off "ViewEdit" in that column in csv/pdf.

I tried using "fnCellRender" but didnt helped.

Can anyone plz help me with that?

    It may be your mRender function "return" value. Check your use of quotes,

    thx for the response.

    yes it is coz of the mRender function. So my question is how can I hide that :viewEdit" from mRender function in the exported csv/excel/pdf?

    Please help!!

    You'd need to modify TableTools since it uses the display value for the export.

    I figured out that fnCellRender doenot works if the button type is of type "collection". Can anyone help me with the workaround to edit the column values with the "collection" button type.

    please help!! its urgent
