- Th old comma as a decimal place plug-in isn't needed anymore since
DataTables now has that ability built in using the `thousands` and
`decimal` options
- DataTables uses the `DT` namespace for events internally and will
remove them automatically on destroy, but `dt` is used for public
events. As such, the public events used internally should use `.dt.DT`
to ensure that the listener works as expected, but also so that the
destroy call will remove these listeners
- This is to preserve user added listeners on destroy. If they want to
remove their listeners to prevent memory leaks, then they should do
so. But DataTables won't do it for them, as actually, you might want
to keep your event listeners!
- fnServerData's second parameter should be an array of objects with
name/value pairs. It was being passed through as the more modern
object, but fnServerData is only present for compatiblity with 1.9 and
should the original format should be retained. This is done with a
simple map function
found
- The old fnGetData method would return null, rather than undefined for
some reason if a given row was not found in the DataTable. The new
wrapper api for the legacy interface should do the same.
- Previously if you cancelled an Ajax request, or the browser did (for
example following a link) the error handler would be entered and show
an alert. This just ensures that the request is complete before
showing an error
- Previously when using columns.render as an object, you had to supply
an `_` option which was the fallback. However, I've now made it so
that if there is no `_` option it will just use the raw data from
`columns.data`
- I've come accross a lot of cases recently where numbers need to be
formatted for display, so I wanted to introduce rendering helpers for
DataTables to make this easier. Only one helper introduced here -
`$.fn.dataTable.render.number()` which will return an object that can
be used by `columns.render` to format "raw" numbers.
- The child row feature of DataTables should be able to take a `tr`
element and add that directly as a child. That wasn't working due to a
logic error before.
- The piplining example didn't have any method to submit additional data
with the Ajax request, other than to modify the library function.
- This commit adds a `data` option which provides the same functionality
as the `ajax.data` option in DataTables - i.e. it can be an object or
function
would be removed from the array of data passed through to the custom
filtering functions. This would cause indexes to misalign.
- The fix is to simply pass in the data filter array that has already
been computed, as that is 1:1 for the display. Also added the raw data
source object for the row for completeness and a bit of a code tidy
up.
- This will cause a bit of an indexing issue, if you have bVisible:false
set, but this is certainly a bug that had to be fixed - it just didn't
make sense as it was, and went against the documentation!

newly created elements
- The fix i've put in is basically the same as what DataTables 1.9-
used. I had tried to opitmise it a little, but it wasn't working for
newly created cells. I still think this can be optimised, but for the
moment, this is at least allows it to work.
