- This is actually a little more complex than it might first appear
since any classes which have been added by DT_RowClass need to be
removed. We can't just bindly remove all classes, so we need to track
that classes have been added in a private variable.
- The jQueryUI option is depricated in 1.10 and will be removed in 1.11
to be replaced by style integration files int he same way that
Bootstrap and Foundation use. This helps to reduce the size of the
core for a feature that is no longer used that often, while also
ensureing that DataTables remains modular and supports many styling
libraries.
- As a result of this change, I want developers to be able to implement
1.10 without needing to use a depricated option, so this highlights
the newly added jQuery styling integration files from the plug-ins
repo.
- The previous combination of GPLv2 and BSD 3 point were confusing to
may users, and of limited use. The MIT license is appropriate for
DataTables core software.
simple() static method which makes it very easy to make a server-side
processing request.
- In the examples the SQL statements are all basically the same, so
having this method to wrap them into a single function cal absolutely
makes sense.
- Also added a `formatter` option to the columns array which will format
the data as needed using a closure function.
- It appears that ti is impossible to know in CSS if a table doesn't
have a tfoot element reliably and cross browser, so I've added a class
which is added to the table automatically if the table has no footer
or the fotoer is empty to complete the styling of the table.
- Fixed error when there are no cells in an empty TR row in the footer.
- With the change to camelCase, it is easier to extend the usageof
optiosn now, and in this case I've allowed the `orderFixed` (formally
`aaSortingFixed` parameter to be passed in as an object as well as an
array. As an object the `pre` and `post` parameters are used to
specify prefix and / or postfix ordering. Useful for gouping.
- The _pluck() function that was being used to get the tr elements
didn't remove nulls, while jQuery doesn't like removing a class from!
- Thanks to `RagingTroll` in the forums for spotting this:

the property being expanded is an object or not. If not, then set it to
be an empty object which will be extended. Only really effected the
`ajax` property
Based on the discussion in the forms (
http://datatables.net/forums/discussion/18456 ) the fix from 8935b8a
wasn't good enough. What was happening was that the _save_data function
was doing a deep copy of all arrays (minus the data array) so the
default sort was stil applied.
The fix is to reinstate the _fnExtend function which does a jQuery like
deep extend on objects and a shallow extend on arrays. That is extended
slightly to allow array references to be broken on initialisation, to
resolve the issue 8935b8a attempted to (sorting array would be used for
two tables for example), by an optional parameter. This should resolve
the issue correctly this time!
- This fixes DataTables/DataTables issue #241.
- Most of the properties attached are objects, so we want the references
to them, rather than a copy, so a simple assignment is all that is
needed. Strings etc will continue to work as well.

- Data added using fnServerParams with array syntax had different
behaviour in 1.10 from 1.9. In 1.9 jQuery would create an array for
us, but in 1.10 before we create an object first, we need to create
that array ourselves. So the following code had different behaviour:
"sAjaxSource": "data/arrays.txt",
"fnServerParams": function ( d ) {
d.push(
{name: 'somekey[]', value: 'somevalue1'},
{name: 'somekey[]', value: 'somevalue2'}
);
}
In 1.10 it would have sent `somekey[] = somevalue2` but 1.9 would have
sent both as part of an array.
To maintain full compatiblity with 1.9 we need to convert this syntax to
an array - this commit does that.
I was concerned about using parameters in the brackets, but jQuery only
searches for `[]` when performing this conversion. We could use $.param
and then decode the created query string, which would be absolutely 100%
comaptible, but would involve additional code and I think this method
provides that 100% compatiblity from reading the jQuery code), and its
shorter.
- This is the CSS version of the cellspacing attribute on the table in HTML. It will work in all browsers except IE6/7. IE8+ and the others are all fine. So for the moment most of my examples will continue carrying the cellspacing attribute, but this is useful to have in the core css
- The ability to use negative numbers as a column selector for the
column data index was added recently, but that didn't include the
ability to work with negative numbers with the :visible pesudo
selector. This commit adds that ability so you can do:
`table.column("-1:visible")` to always get the right most visible
column
with :name postfix.
- Previously you could use a jQuery selector for columns by using the
:jq postfix, and names were matched otherwise. This is reversed now
for consistency with the rows and cells selectors which treat strings
as jQuery selectors without the :jq postfix.
returned undefined, null etc.
- The base issue was in the instanceof check which has a priority error,
it was:
! obj instanceof _Api
which is the same as:
(! obj) instanceof _Api
which is rubbish.
We want:
! (obj instanceof _Api)
but there is of course a wrapper function, so that needs ot be taken
into account as well. The new logic does just that.
