Paging or sorting?

GooDGreY

I apologize in advance for my English.
My question:
[code]
$ ("# example"). dataTable ({
                     "bProcessing": false,
                     "bServerSide": true,
                     "sAjaxSource": "Handler.ashx"
});
[/code]
On the server, I need to know if there is paging. How do I determine? I would like something like this:
 [code] "fnServerParams": function (aoData) {
if (_something_){
   aoData.push ({"name": "paging", "value": "true"});
}
}
[/code]
Thanks!

You could use the iDisplayLength, parameter that is sent to the server. It should be -1 if there is no paging.

No, iDisplayLength is always > 0.
Sorting and pages always goes to the server, regardless of the action = /
I fell in love with your product, but I really need to recognize the paging :)
My form data:

sEcho:4
iColumns:33
sColumns:
iDisplayStart:10000
iDisplayLength:5000
mDataProp_0:0
-
mDataProp_32:32
iSortCol_0:1
sSortDir_0:asc
iSortingCols:1
bSortable_0:true
-
bSortable_32:true

For a while I solved the problem like this, but I do not like it
[code]
"fnServerParams": function (aoData) {
var isPaging = false;
var beforePageStart = localStorage.getItem('pageStart');
var afterPageStart = oTable.fnSettings()._iDisplayStart.toString();
if (localStorage.getItem('pageStart'))
isPaging = beforePageStart != afterPageStart;
aoData.push({ "name": "isPaging", "value": isPaging });
localStorage.setItem('pageStart', oTable.fnSettings()._iDisplayStart);
[/code]

It seems to work just fine for me here: http://live.datatables.net/avaqax/edit#javascript,html . Please link me to a test case showing it not working, so if there is a problem in DataTables I can fix it.

Excuse me, we still do not understand each other. I need paging, just when a request comes in to the server I need to know what action had been produced. Sorting, paging, or simply download the table.
p.s. im russian, google translate helps me, but not always :)

GooDGreY

In the example above, I retain the current page and if it is changed, I know that the user changes the page.

I'm a bit confused then. DataTables cannot change mode based on the Ajax return from the server. It is either server-side processing, or it is client-side processing. There can be no mix of the two nor can it dynamically change between them. It can only be selected at initialisation time. So if you need to change it based on the data, you need to do the Ajax get yourself.

Here is your example http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/server_side/server_side.html. Okay? When the data arrives at the server, how do you know which button the user has clicked (sorting or paging)? Just know, without any action

allan

You don't. There is nothing in the public interface that DataTables exposes that would give that information. If you need it, you would need to modify DataTables.
