nCell object does not exist on line 669 (DataTables 1.9.4)

This only occurs in IE8 (Maybe lower too?), and not in any other major browser: For some reason this nCell object does not exist when creating a new DataTable. We placed an alert above this line and outputted nCell. It does output an HTML element a lot of times, and then suddenly, an undefined one. We have no clue how this can happen.

Weird thing is that this only happens with out datatables. The demo has no problems..

Can you link to a live test case showing the problem please? I don't immediately see anything wrong with your code.

Yeah sure, I made a small page with only the necessary data:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/51741996/datatables_error_demo/index.html

Note that I have made a PHP script to generate both the JS and HTML code. That's why the JS code also defaults what's already default :P

I haven't forgotten about this. I just need to get my hands on an IE8 machine.

Could this be a bug in the DataTables library? Would be strange tho, as the demo on the homepage does work properly.

RemiDG

I'm sorry for bumping already, but we are quite in a hurry right now. We need a fix as soon as possible :/

You've got a trailing comma at the end of your aoColumns array. Not a bug in DataTables :-).

Lmfao! That's the craziest thing I've seen lately. Trailing comma's shouldnt matter D: Silly Internet Explorer :P Thanks a lot!
