Additionally you need to modify your selector slightly: ':eq(0)' - i.e. $( table.row(':eq(0)').node()).trigger("click"); That way the first row in the table will be selected regardless of sorting. Using 0 alone will select the first row that was read into the table. Allan

PHP for selecting and sorting records for AJAX calls

feature handling all the sorting, paging and what have

see the Datatables styled sorting icons. They are not

If you need to do something when changing the page or sorting the draw should be usable.

Now i have removed everything and update just this below code....still sorting and filter is not working............. var table = $('#out_patient_list').DataTable({ serverSide: true, ajax: _baseUrl+"datatable/datatable_ver_chng", });

This willalso move your sorting icons to the top

but the dataTable isn't initialized so I don't get paging or sorting or scrolling Have you looked at the browser's console to see if there are any errors? Features not working is usually a result of Javascript errors. Kevin
