alldd.ddval({name: 'carrier',type:'val',ref:$(this),arg:data}); return (data); } }, */ ], columns: [ { "data": "trailer.id_trailer" }, { "data": "trailer.number"

not resize the other columns to take utilize that

That was it - thank you. Here is the working code: function updateTable() { table = $('#DataTable1').DataTable(); table.destroy(); $('#DataTable1').empty(); table = $('#DataTable1').DataTable( { data: dataSet, destroy: true, empty: true, columns: [ { title: "Name" }, { title: "Position" }, { title: "Office" }, { title: "Extn." }, { title: "Start date" }, { title: "Salary" } ] } ); }

delete d.order; delete d.search; } }, columns: [ { data: "id", orderable: false

DataTables doesn't have to use all of the data that is given to it in the displayed columns. So you can just include the extra information in a JSON property that is not displayed in a column. Allan

Server you can have columns with a space in

table contains the 4 columns u can check in

Hi allan, thank for the linked example, it does help. Writing my own selector would have gotten to complex since we are generating the columns of datatables from a factory and columnmappigs need to be translated then.

document).ready(function() { $('#datatable').DataTable({ data: data, columns: [ { data: 'name' }, { data: 'project'

You need to use columnDefs, not columns if you want to target a specific column like that. There is no columns.target option. Allan
