Simple Datatable implementation

johnsam

Hi ,

I am new to datatable .Can anyone help to use it with JSP?

I am trying to call a txt file which contains JSON format:

{"sEcho":3,"iTotalRecords":10,"iTotalDisplayRecords":2,"aaData":[["1",0,0,"2",0]]}

My JSP page:


$(document).ready(function() {

$('#ProResults').dataTable( {
"bProcessing": true,
"bServerSide": true,
"aaSorting":[],
"sAjaxSource": "testJSON.txt"

} );

} );



The error i get is JSON data from server could not be parsed.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

allan

It looks okay on a quick scan, but the error will be correct. I'd suggest running the return that you see from the server in FireBug through http://jsonlint.com

thanks allan.. i figured it out that that i need to create a table without any data with the th on the columns to be shown... is there any way to load it in div ??

Sorry, I'm not quite clear on what you are looking for - do you want to load the table data into a DIV? DataTables works only on TABLE elements. If you want a DIV wrapper, then you need a table inside the div.

Allan, how do I load data table by clicking on the row of existing data table?
