Perfect - fnCreatedCell is just the ticket then. Allan

thank you very much

In the mData documentation it says: The return value from the function is not required when 'set' is the type of call, but otherwise the return is what will be used for the data requested. So yes it is there, but it requires close reading... I'm not sure it is possible to highlight that any more as its nitty-gritty. if I highlight that,t hen there are thousands of other small things which should also be highlighted! Allan

Hi, Are there any console messages logged when you attempt to use the 2nd and 3rd tables? Maybe post a link to your page so the JS is exposed to the community.

Ah - are you using server-side processing? In which case yes, fnStandingRedraw will execute and return before the new data has been loaded. You could use the draw event to cope with that: [code] $('#myTable').one( 'draw.dt', function () { // ... add classes etc } ); oTableLocal.fnStandingRedraw(); [/code] then the event handler will fire on the next draw (i.e. when the data has loaded).

You can make another button that takes all the datatable's data then ajax it back to the server, however i am not sure how well it will work if you are doing pagination.

Yup :-)

Sounds like the SWF file isn't being loaded. Use sSwfPath to point at the correct path: http://datatables.net/release-datatables/extras/TableTools/swf_path.html . Check the console in your browser and server error log to confirm if this is the case. Second, my guess on the lack of images is that they are not coming across. What images and where are they not going to? Can you please link to the page so we can debug it. Allan

It works after installing latest adobe flash plugin

hey thank you for the responses and my apologies for that implicit ignoring of the rules. I couldn't post a screenshot/sample because it is behind a company wall and can't be accessed. I hhave now learned that there are other pages where the filtering works just fine on the basis of AND. the pages where datatables do OR filtering have been manually tweaked to have OR filtering instead of the (default) AND. I just need to know where do I put that back from OR to default AND. cheers,
