It seems to happen on the following line: oSettings.aiDisplayMaster.sort(fnLocalSorting) It's always the same columns in my table but there appears to be nothing special about the data in those specific columns. Thanks Chris

Spot on. Thanks for the update post :) Allan

One option is to set the page.len() to -1 to fetch all the data from the server to allow Datatables to perform the filtering. Although this negates enabling server side processing in the first place. The best option is to gather the filtering info you are interested in and sending it via jQuery Ajax() to the server then have the server script gather the coordinate info to return in the JSON response. In the success function handle the JSON response as appropriate. The plugin mentioned in the Buttons SSP FAQ does something similar to allow for server side exporting of the filtered data. You might be able to leverage it and add the searchBuilder.getDetails() details to perform your search. It will need refactoring to fit into your requirements. Or maybe it will help get you started with your own Ajax request parameters. Kevin

Thank you Allan! That would be great!
