FixedColumns 3.0.2: undefined is not a function for line 278: this._fnConstruct( init )

Can't figure out how to replicate this in DataTables live, but hoping it is simple enough.

Using jQuery 1.11.1 and DataTables 1.10.2, code is simply:

$(document).ready(function() {
    table = $('#table').dataTable({});
    $.fn.dataTable.FixedColumns(table);
});

Result: undefined is not a function for line 278: this._fnConstruct( init )

Works fine without FixedColumns.

Are you referencing dataTables.fixedColumns.js in your page? It's a separate download.

I am referencing the extension that comes with DataTables 1.10.2 i.e.

<script type="text/javascript" src="/static/DataTables-1.10.2/extensions/FixedColumns/js/dataTables.fixedColumns.js"></script>

I can confirm that FixedColumns is loading correctly, and that the error is within the dataTables.fixedColumns.js file.

$.fn.dataTable.FixedColumns(table);

Needs the new key word since you are creating a new instance!

new $.fn.dataTable.FixedColumns(table);
