Submitting form data when it has not been rendered yet
Submitting form data when it has not been rendered yet

I am using a JavaScript array / JSON as my data source in conjunction with the bDeferRender option enabled. In my table (which has pagination enabled), each row has a cell with an input. Initially this input will have value, however the user may change it at their discretion. When they are done, they can hit Save to submit the form.
In the event the user does not navigate through all the pages (and so some of the data is not rendered) how do I ensure all of the inputs are submitted with the form? Since the creation of the elements are deferred, I cannot use fnGetNodes and fnGetHidden nodes--because they will be missing inputs which have not been rendered yet. My only thought it is somehow use fnGetData(), however it seems a little tricky to distinguish between elements have already been rendered and which have not.
