You wouldn't find anything in the documentation about it as there isn't a way to dynamically add and remove columns from a DataTable. You could update the text in the header cells (column().header()) and also combine that with column visibility (column().visible()) to create the effect of dynamic columns (.e.g if the max needed is 31).

So let me se if i understand it right, i need to define the number of headers? I cant increment that number?

You could do something similar to this example:
http://live.datatables.net/huyexejo/1/edit

It builds the columns before initializing Datatables. It uses columns.title to define the headers.

If you need to change the configuration of a Datatable then you need to use destroy() and re-initialize with the new options.
