    Yes - when you enable scrolling DataTables has to split the table into two (or three if you have a footer like here) individual tables. That allows the middle table, which visually shows the body, to scroll without scrolling the header and footer.

    So to get the thead and tfoot elements you need to use the table().header() and table().footer() methods, respectively.

    E.g.

    $('#table tfoot .text-input')

    becomes

    $('.text-input', table.table().footer())
// or
$(table.table().footer()).find('.text-input')

    Updated example: http://live.datatables.net/loxeyope/5/edit .
