Hello, I have a datatable working fine initially then I try a custom search and I can't get the data into the table. I see my query to the server is good, my response from the server is good but the table won't update. I can't even clear my table
var table = $(me.element).DataTable({
iDisplayLength: 50,
responsive: true,
processing: true,
serverSide: true,
searching: false,
bLengthChange: false,
ajax: {
url: me.url,
dataType: 'json',
cache:false,
type: 'GET',
data: function ( d ) {
$.extend( d, me.data);
d.supersearch = $('.simply-filter').val();
}
},
columns: me.columns,
columnDefs: me.renderer
});
function gridSearch(element){
var table2 = $(element).DataTable();
table2.clear().draw();
}
Does anyone know how I can clear the table and repopulate it with the new query result?

Sorry here is the code reformatted:
I seem to always figure it out after I post. Anyway I am using a custom php query and I wasn't returning the draw from the server.
