Thanks J!! Exactly the fix I needed as well.

thanks Allan for the quick reply i'll try to make the appropriate changes. Arjun

Very nice :-). Just one comment - it would be worth using the fnLengthChange plug-in rather than setting the "private" variables directly: http://datatables.net/plug-ins/api#fnLengthChange . Allan

I couldn't get that script to automagically create full select option lists of my column data. I ended up just writing a small script to generate it on the server before serving the web page and then hooking an oTable.fnFilter() function to the onChange event handler for the different selects.

The problem now is solved. It's my fault. The right way of calling this action is: "aLengthMenu": [[25, 50, 100, -1], [25, 50, 100, "All"]]

Edits made in initial post !

Allan/Kussie, yes, that was exactly it. I removed the quotes and everything flew perfectly. p.s. It also removed the need for my next call which was going to be "Why does the info show as 'records 1 to 020 of 1,922'"? (i.e. have a leading zero!) Thanks again to you both, Pete.

It doesn't work for me. For some reason, if there are many columns of different types, the search goes on "Processing..." without explaining why is failing

p.s. All was o.k., but I wanted to have the dropdown list sorted. Fortunately, this was a simple thing todo (once I'd found this post: http://datatables.net/forums/discussion/comment/17116#Comment_17116)

Is it possible this php code is causing the error about columns. It's used when our table is created and also in the ajax refresh code. Depending on a condition we are setting a div class. But the programmer wrapped the entire td element instead of just running the if else around the div class inside the td. [code] [/code]
