problem with custom filters and invoking DataTables twice, error 'oSettings = null'

Kryptic

Hi,

We create a datatables object via the .dataTable() function, and then push some filter functions to $.fn.dataTableExt.afnFiltering.

This works fine, but later on in our application when we run datatables again (on the same page), we get the error:
oSettings is null, line 4580.

The call stack reveals the .dataTable call as the source. Without the filter functions, we don't get this problem.

Any ideas what we could be doing wrong?

Not sure I'm afraid - can you link us to a test page showing the problem so we can offer some help please.
