.row() returning wrong row from .cell( element )

NewLIST

I think I may have found a bug in the latest version of DataTables. When calling the following code in a two-row table:

var rowData = $('#mytable').DataTable().cell( element ).row().data();

DataTables returns only the first row. I can console log that DataTables is getting the right .cell( element ), but then when it grabs the .row() it returns the first row instead of the second. Here's the debug link.

Hi Beau,

Using row() like that is actually just using row() without a selector. So it is selecting all rows and then truncating it to the first row found.

What you want is:

var rowData = $('#mytable').DataTable().row( element.parentNode ).data();

Okay, cool. That works. That's probably what I get for coding at 3:00 AM. ;)

You can close this, Allan. Thanks again!
