Search

The problem is that you are inserting new elements into the table's footer on every draw. For example try typing "123" into the search box. Nothing to do with the print view, although that does trigger the issue :-) I'd suggest going with the approach I suggested in the other thread. Allan

it's ok, i've wired it up manually.

Thanks!

To disable pagination, no of pages selection etc. use And bPaginate / bLengthChange . It sounds like FixedColumns is what you want. You say it didn't work for you, but in what way? Without an explanation (and a link) of what is no working we can't offer any help! Allan

fnRender is string based (as well is being deprecated). You want to use fnCreatedCell to manipulate the cells and possibly mRender or sDefaultContent to put something into the cell in the first place. Allan

Aha clearly not. That's an excellently formatted page. Thanks allan!

The content type for your JSON looks a little off to me. The fact that the browser doesn't know what to do with it also suggests that it is wrong. Try application/json . Another question is when first load the page, it make two requests to server. Why is the error? No idea - I think we'd need a link to debug why that is. Allan

[SOVLED] Hi, I was actually able to figure it on my own. In the server_processing.php file, I added this to the output statement: [code] /* * Output / $output = array( "sEcho" => intval($_GET['sEcho']), "iTotalRecords" => $iTotal, "iTotalDisplayRecords" => $iFilteredTotal, "aaData" => array() ); while ( $aRow = mysql_fetch_array( $rResult ) ) { $row = array(); for ( $i=0 ; $i<count($aColumns) ; $i++ ) { if ( $aColumns[$i] == "version" ){ / Special output formatting for 'version' column / $row[] = ($aRow[ $aColumns[$i] ]=="0") ? '-' : $aRow[ $aColumns[$i] ]; } elseif ($aColumns[$i] == "signUp_date") { $signUp_date = strtotime($aRow["signUp_date"]); if ($aRow["signUp_date"] == "0000-00-00 00:00:00"){ $row[] = "N/A"; } $row[] = date('m-d-y h:i:s a', $signUp_date); } elseif ( $aColumns[$i] != ' ' ){ / General output */ $row[] = $aRow[ $aColumns[$i] ]; } } [/code] The IMPORTANT part being: [code] elseif ($aColumns[$i] == "signUp_date") { $signUp_date = strtotime($aRow["signUp_date"]); if ($aRow["signUp_date"] == "0000-00-00 00:00:00"){ $row[] = "N/A"; } $row[] = date('m-d-y h:i:s a', $signUp_date); } [/code] The section with "N/A" does a check to see if there empty date in the column and then puts out that statement... anyone who doesn't have that can just take it out Thanks,

Yes exactly - just put a for loop over that deleting anSelected[i]. The API in 1.10 will be must more flexible in that regard allowing you to pass in an array of nodes to be deleted. Allan

Remove border-collapse: collapse and it will work fine ( http://live.datatables.net/eliwej/edit#javascript,html ). Border collapse makes really odd things happen with column width calculations. See this post from me for how to get the border collapse effect without actually using collapse: http://datatables.net/forums/discussion/9349/whitespace-between-table-and-vertical-scrollbar-in-ie6-and-ie7/p1#Item_7 Allan
