I've not used it myself, but assuming you get JSON data back from and XHR (assuming you want to use XHR) then you can use the options in DataTables 1.8 to consume virtually any JSON data source: http://datatables.net/blog/Extended_data_source_options_with_DataTables Allan

data you have two options: You can make an

elTxt.length >= options.captureLength In the options code above, set captureLength:

Still took me a few attempts to get this to work: this selects 100 by default, change iDisplayLength to 10 or -1 for the other options: [code] $('#datatable_id').dataTable( { "iDisplayLength": 100, "oLanguage": { "sLengthMenu": 'Display '+ '10'+ '100'+ 'All'+ ' records' } } ); [/code]

fnRender. Quite a few options in this area now

Two options - you can use the new data source options in 1.8: http://datatables.net/blog/Extended_data_source_options_with_DataTables - or you can simply construct a 1D array from each object and pass that to fnAddData (e.g. [ a[i].number, a[i].value ... ]). Allan
