Null dates in 1.10

lyndonwil

Prior to 1.10, i handled Null dates by using fnRender

"mRender": function (data, type, row) {
if (moment(data.trim()).isValid()){
var DateToCheck = moment(data.trim()).format('DD/MM/YY');
return(DateToCheck);
}
else
{
return '';
}
},"searchable": false, "class": "center", "targets": [ 3,4,5,6]

fnrender isn't in 1.10 and using render doesn't work either. Is there something i've missed?

Thanks tangerine

Can you show us a test case with the problem please? If the value really is null, then columns.defaultContent is probably the best way of handling it, unless you need for formatting function, in which case it will be best in your columns.render function.

I managed to fix this in the end and the issue was with my php class and how i'd used the strtotime fuction. using render works perfectly now

thank you
