That's all I want!!! I couldn't find that option, thank you!

var headers = ["sTitle : FSNe", "sTitle : Project Name", "sTitle : Description", "sTitle : PrjTrk #", "sTitle : SAP #"] ; You've got an array of strings there. You want an array of objects like in the documentation ( http://datatables.net/ref#sTitle ): [code] [ { sTitle: "FSNe" }, { sTitle: "Project Name" }, ... ] [/code] Allan

If you want the select list in the table, then yes, that looks like a good way of doing it to me, and probably what I would have suggested. Arrays might be slightly faster that string concatenation when building the string (and use join ) in older IE versions, and save you a line or two, but likely not a noticeable amount if the table is relative small.

I was hiding the DIV that contained the datatable before manipulating it's structure and data. Once I stopped hiding the datatable, it worked well. Looks like datatable needs the table to be visible in the first place for proper redraw to work.

My fault - typo on data

See, it's a testament to how ignorant of JS I am that it took me a good 15 minutes to figure what and where the console was. Turns out that there's two stupid syntax errors in the ?: statements (namely I actually have a '?' and a ':' right next to each other, without an expression between them). I then managed to work out the rest of the problems myself, thanks to the newfound console. :) Sorry to bother you with such trivialities, but at least it won't happen again. :P

hello megetron, i suppose you could use the column filter plugin by jovan popavic, there you can make all the adjustment on which rows need to be fileterd and which to be not. following is the link: http://jquery-datatables-column-filter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/index.html Arjun

I should add that in my above example code I have listed "bAutoWidth" as being set to "treu". That is just a cut-and-paste error, in my code it is actually set to "true". Perhaps I should have added that I only want the table to be as wide as it "needs to be".

Hi Allan, Thanks for the info, but I actually figured that out (my solution was using .eq(1)). Using a id is not easy for me because I have multiple datatables, accros tabs, that requere the same behavior. So it's a lot easier when I can just rever to the .datatable in the current tab.

You are going to have to provide a while lot more information than that if we are to be able to offer any help whatsoever. See also: http://datatables.net/faqs#speed Allan
