Hello,when put that iDisplayLength = 10 ,it works fine when bServerSide = false,but when it is true,it display all records on one page even if iDisplayLength = 10.How to solve this?Tnx

If you are using server-side processing then you will need to handle pagination, sorting, etc in your server-side code. For example, I do this in PHP:

[code]
for ( $row = 0; $row < $numsplf; $row++) {
if (($row < ( $iDisplayStart + $iDisplayLength )) && ($row >= $iDisplayStart ) ) {
/* build aaData here */
}
}
[/code]

Hi darthvan,

I believe just by following the code on the link that you just posted should work. DataTables will do the pagination for you as long as you give it the necessary information it needs.

Could you post your server side code?
