oTable in 1.9.4 has no fnIsOpen? "TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'fnIsOpen'"

I clipped some example code and stuck it into my dataTable like this:

[code]
"fnInitComplete": function(oSettings, json) {
jQuery('#data tbody tr').click( function () {
if ( oTable.fnIsOpen(this) ) {
oTable.fnClose( this );
} else {
oTable.fnOpen( this, "Temporary row opened", "info_row" );
}
} );
},
[/code]

Got this error "TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'fnIsOpen'".

Then I cut the snippet down to this, and it worked:

[code]
"fnInitComplete": function(oSettings, json) {
jQuery('#data tbody tr').click( function () {
oTable.fnOpen( this, "Temporary row opened", "info_row" );
} );
},
[/code]

Of course it doesn't close the opened row, though. Why is fnIsOpen not recognized here?

Try:

[code]
"fnInitComplete": function(oSettings, json) {
var that = this;
jQuery('#data tbody tr').click( function () {
that.fnOpen( this, "Temporary row opened", "info_row" );
} );
},
[/code]

In fnInitComplete `this` should `=== oTable` - but it depends upon the rest of your code and what options you set. Using `this` is safer.

This doesn't work. And I got the snippet from this website, so you'd think it would work.
