Let me first off start by saying- I apologize for how simplistic this might be.
I am using server side processing & it's working great. The only problem is that I need to connect two tables. Currently I have a table filled with categories & a table filled with "issues". I am using the issues table with DataTables but it is returning the ID values for the Categories instead of the category's name. I will need for it to query the Categories table & return the category name instead of the ID. I assume it's possible & I am just missing something really obvious but I am pretty new to DataTables so I am completely lost. If you can explain this to me like I'm in the fourth grade, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks,
Samantha
