7bca91d1b5 Fix: Memory leak with child rows in a table that is destroyed
New: `dt-api row().child.remove()` and `dt-api row().child().remove()` methods to provide the ability to remove and destroy child rows
Fix docs: Note that the row().child() method's return value can have an effect on the chaining

* This fixed DataTables/DataTables issue #326.
* Special thanks to `Scottmitch1` (on github) for help with this one!

097f45855f Dev: Modify the API extender to remove a potential closure issue
Dev: Modify the initialisation of _Api - the old method of using `=`
twice on a row caused Chrome's debugger to show it as both names
concatinated which was confusing.

Fix: Remove API "build" code. That was part of the API prototype and the
design moved away from that approach. The code was redundant and unused.

3ea905201b Fix: Custom filter was running through the rows in reverse
* Originally this was done because it makes removing items a little bit
  easier with Array.splice(), however, it doesn't make any sense to go
  through the rows in reverse if there might be an interdependency
  between the rows.
* It has never been documented what order the rows are filtered in, so I
  think this is a safe change to make.
* I've also added the row display index to the parameters passed in

00a99a0037 Fix: IE8 events error
* In IE8 if the DataTables width calculation functions were being
  triggered DataTables would clone the table node and then do a jQuery
  $().remove() on the cloned node. This was bad in IE8 as it meant that
  on the remove the events that were attached tot he original table were
  removed as well as the ones on the clone table. IE8 must retain some
  kind of link between the original and clone nodes. Using jQuery's
  clone() method resolves this.

de1d6541ef Fix: Remove escaping of quotes for search input
* Previously the filter builder was created as a string, so we had to
  escape quotes, otherwise it could create invalid HTML. That is no
  longer the case as we are using jQuery DOM manipulation, so the escape
  is redundant and potentially harmful

d6b54b4cde Fix: Length menu language with wrapper element wasn't correctly populated
* Due to the manipulation of DOM elements rather than strings for the
  length list, the browser was cropping elements which were being cut
  short. Fix is to switch back to string manipulation, which can be done
  easily using the outerHTML property of the DOM element. This is
  supported in all browsers since Firefox 11, so happy to use it here.

7100d34d9f New: Give cell position information to dt-init columns.data and dt-init columns.render
* The two data handling functions for each column are now given a forth
  parameter if you are using them as a function. This new parameter
  gives index position information about the cell in question, as well
  as access to the settings object.
* This additional information allows abstraction functions to be created
  external to DataTables that can be reused for different columns, with
  those abstraction functions now having access to the information about
  the cell they are operating on. For example, you might have a number
  formatting function which can be reused, and it will determine what
  data to read based on the column index given.
* This additional information is required in order to be able to fully
  replace fnRender which was removed in DataTables 1.10.
* This fixes DataTables/DataTables #321
* Documentation updated, including an error fix for columns.data

e82334589d New: sessionStorage and infinite state save option
- The stateDuration option has been updated to provide the ability to
  indicate if sessionStorage should be used rather than localStorage
  (set value to -1).

- Settings stateDuration to 0 also indicates that the duration is
  infinity.

- Parts of the state saving have been optimised for code size, so this
  commit actually reduces the min size by 32 bytes despite the new
  abilities.

80e748cc11 Fix: Accessiblity - Add role=row attribute to table rows
- Feedback from James Craig on improving the accessiblity of DataTables.
  Since the `role=grid` option is added to the DataTables table, we
  should also add `role=row` to the rows in the table so the browsers
  can see them correctly. As James notes, it is debatable if this is
  needed or not but it is required in current Chrome and Webkit.

- Webkit do now allow roles to be optional in the nighties - see:
  https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131819 . Once Apple deploy
  this in a Safari update, and Chrome also deploy support, I think this
  should be removed from DataTables core, since it will no longer be
  needed in the latest browsers, and manipulating the DOM can hit
  performance a bit.

7ab49af0b6 Fix: Selector couldn't be given as an API instance with indexes
- It is useful to be able to filter row indexes by a condition and then
  operate on the resulting array of indexes, but before the selector
  would only itterate over real arrays. So if you passed is an API
  instance with the result set being the indexes to delete, it wouldn't
  work!

- Fix is to loop over anything which has a `length` property

b53ac91310 Fix: Ajax data wasn't being sent for non-server-side processing

  ajax wasn't transforming this into a data object and then sending it
  to the server. The fix is to check if the data passed in is an array
  or not - if so, transform it to an object

  array of data read is shortened by the number of hidden columns, and
  thus the data is corrupted.

af7f2780f4 New: Smart filtering upgraded to support quoted exact match
- DataTables' smart filtering now has the ability to search for an exact
  string, in the given order, over multiple words. This is done by
  providing the exact match search string in quotes - for example:

    Angela "Cheif Exec" London

  Will match three terms - `Angela`, `Cheif Exec` and `London`. Those
  three terms will be matched in any order.

- This matches the search behaviour that we all know and love in Google!

- It can be disabled along with the rest of DataTables' smart filtering
  using the `smart` option.

- This enhancement comes courtesy of Barry Keepence. Original forum
  thread: http://datatables.net/forums/discussion/16250/. Thanks!

c5058c36e6 Fix: Extending objects in the API could cause scope errors over multiple tables
- See thread 20075 for the original report

- Basically the issue here was that the object being used for the API
  extension on objects (e.g. `table.ajax` is an object) the object was
  not unique to each API instance, so it was being shared between
  instances and as a result, whatever instance was created last, would
  win!

- Fix is to use a new object each time.

67a2b18ca3 Fix: Memory leaks from not removing listeners on destroy
- 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

c625f2f525 Fix: Destroy should use detatch() not remove()
- This is to preserve user added listeners on destroy. If they want to

  to keep your event listeners!

4834aa26be Fix: If you had a column which has columns.visible:false set on it, it
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!

7f9f954d99 New: eq() API method to reduce an API instance to just a single context
and result set for the plural methods.

Fix: Row details events were itterating over non-DataTables rows
creating a Javascript error

Fix: Example - Server-side processing row details example updated to be
able to restore the details row on a redraw.

Update: Documentation - Most examples which used `flatten()` are more
correct to use the new `eq()` method, so they have been updated.

- This set of changes is based on the discussion in thread 19377. While
  working on the fix, I realised that the use of flatten() is too broad,
  so the new `eq()` function is introduced. It is similar to the jQuery
  eq() method in that it reduces the instance to just the selected
  index, although in DataTables this is both the context and the result
  set. Its a small addition, but I think it will provide to be very
  useful

afdf67075d New: language.decimal option. This option can be used to tell
DataTables which character is used as a decimal place in the table's
data, so that number which are formatted using characters other than a
dot as the decimal place can be correctly detected and sorted.

- A large part of the world uses the comma as a decimal place, so it
  makes sense to have this option built-in directly to DataTables,
  rather than needing to use plu-in sorting types as before:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_mark

- However, the decimal place character cannot be detected automatically
  since there are far to many ambiguities. As such, a new
  `language.decimal` option is defined which is passed through to the
  type detection functions. The type detection functions can then use
  that character to alter their detection functions to transform numbers
  into the dot formatted equivilent for parsing in Javascript.

- The numeric sorting methods have been bundled together in the function
  `_addNumericSort` which is called when a character is given for the
  decimal mark, adding the sorting functions required specifically for
  that mark. This means that any character at all can be added, while
  keeping the table's sort performance as it was.

- Code size in increased a little for this new feature, but a lot of
  work has been done to keep it to a minimum (while still optimising for
  the most common use case of a dot decimal place), and this is a good
  feature to have in DataTables' core code.

- All required documentation added and updated.

- Special thanks to Tobias Bäthge for suggesting and sponsoring this
  feature.

- This is caused due to different content in the displayed header and

  are identical, due to the different content.

- The fix is to keep the content in the scroll body header, but hide it

2c4cc4fd1b New: Built in filtering will throttle calls to the server when using
server-side processing

- A popular plug-in for DataTables is the `fnSetFilteringDelay` plug-in,
  which provides a bit of a buffer when typing into the filter input so
  you don't make an Ajax request for every key stroke - i.e. don't DDoS
  your own server!

- Since we have _fnThrottle built in now for the scrolling, we can also
  use it to provide this buffering functionality for server-side
  processing filtering in the core. A couple of small changes for
  _fnThrottle were required to get the callback context correct and ot
  call it not immediately, but only after the delay

6fbd3ba8e6 New: Add the ability to read size information from HTML elements for columns
- Column width is always a particularly difficult one to get quite
  right. In this case, the fix is to have DataTables read column width
  information from the `width` or `style` attributes of a column header
  cell, if that information is present. If it is, it is treated as
  sWidth is (although user supplied sWidth can override). That is it say
  that it will be applied to the column width calculation table.

- The remaining gap is if a developer assigns a width using css classes.
  We can't get that information, so we fall into the old problem.

- This change comes about from the discussion in
  http://datatables.net/forums/discussion/19089 and the fiddle here:
  http://jsfiddle.net/EysLd/1/

- What is happening in the test case is that the calculation table is
  being created, but it is then stripped of widths due to this commit:
  https://github.com/DataTables/DataTables/commit/6a9e324 . That was to
  allow DataTables column headers to have their applied size removed, so
  a new size could be calculated. Only sWidth would override that - now
  the width and style attributes will as well

2891978fd1 Fix: Numbers incorrectly detected as dates in Chrome
- Chrome (V8) will incorrectly detect '$245.12' and similar as dates,
  since V8 will strip unknown characters from a string given to
  Date.parse and then attempt to parse the rest of the string - in the
  example above: Dec, 245:
    https://code.google.com/p/v8/source/browse/trunk/src/dateparser-inl.h#72

- The fix implemented to to check for a leading a-zA-Z, number or +-.
  Although this isn't a perfect match for what Chrome does, it, I think,
  a good enough effort to chatch nearly all particular use cases.

- Additionaly, V8 will try to parse a single number passed into
  Date.parse - 1-12 are months, 32+ are years. As such, the numeric type
  detection much be a highter priority than the date detection, since
  Chrome might incorrectly use a column as a date. It would sort
  correctly, but it isn't "correct".

- The take away from this is that Date.parse cannot be used for date
  format validation on its own...

7e67778c51 Dev: Change to how the init object is copied for multiple tables
Based on the discussion in the forms (

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!

- Data added using fnServerParams with array syntax had different

				{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.

6740193eed Dev fix: The API chaining was a little broken if the inner function

- The base issue was in the instanceof check which has a priority error,

  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.

a423c0f457 API - dev: Remove the plugin() methods from the new API
- Decided that it would be better to provide the new API by having
  plug-ins extend it directly, rather than providing their own API.
  Using the plugin() method it was possible to get a plug-in insta,ce
  for example TableTools, but the way it should work is that TableTools
  would provide a tabletools() API method, registering it as an
  extension to the DataTables API objects. Further more, TableTools
  should provide methods such as row().select() etc, extending the
  current API rather than doing its own thing which the plugin() methods
  prompted.

- No backwards compatiblity issues here as the plugin() code hasn't
  shipped as a release.

635a027057 Dev: Remove the static construct method that had been added as part of 1.10
- I added a static DataTable.on() method previously in the 1.10
  development for a single event called `construct` which would tell us
  when a table was constructed. But I've realise that since the events
  that DataTables' triggers bubble up through the document, that effect
  can already be achieved:

- Use:
  - $(document).on( 'init.dt', function ( e, settings ) { } );

- Rather than:
  - $.fn.dataTable.on( 'construct', function ( settings ) { } );

- No backwards compatiblity issues as the DataTable.on code was never

6dcc69ee54 New: DataTables events are now all bound to the .dt namespace
- This is a breaking backwards incompatible change - please be aware of
  this!

- DataTables fires custom events such as `draw` etc, but these events
  were in no way identifyable as eminating from DataTables rather than
  some other component, which can cause confusion and difficulty
  resolving bugs.

- As such, all DataTables events are now fired with the `dt` namespace -
  this means if you are currently using events, you must update your
  code to also use the .dt namespace. If you are already using
  namespaces, that's great, you can continue to do so as jQuery allows
  multiple namespaces, but you must still use the .dt namespace.

- This is a breaking change because the old behaviour was incorrect -
  i.e. this was a bug to be fixed, hence why we haven't gone through a
  deprecation cycle. The old events weren't well documented (only in the
  JSDoc generated docs and a few of my forum posts), whereas in 1.10
  they will form a key part of the documentation. As such, now is the
  time to get this right. This will be documented clearly in the upgrade
  notes.

e1f0fd2dee Updated: Naming consistency for searching and ordering
- With the new API the filter() and sort() methods already have meaning
  (the array methods built into Javascript) so the methods for filtering
  and sorting in the API are called search() and order() respectively.
  However, the intialisation parameters and events in DataTables use a
  mix of filter, search, sort and order in their terminology so this
  commit harmonises on just search and order, updating where
  appropriate.

- There are a number of incompatible changes if you are already using
  the new options in 1.10, but no incompatible changes to the latest
  release (1.9.4). 1.10 changes:
    - Server-side processing, the new parameters sent have been updated
      to refelect the new terminology
    - The Ext object likewise has been updated

- Default with the old options and padding int he old options will still
  work as before, compatiblity functions have been added to provide
  mapping. If both are provided the new parameter value will take
  president.

- The change is primarily around `sort` since that was reasonably
  consistent in its terminology for the initlaisation parameters before.

8c2c65c9dd New: Cached footer cells can now have colspan properties, allowing
column index referencing of the cells.

- Previously a colspan in a footer cell would cause index misalignment -
  for example if you had a table of 6 columns with two in the footer
  (one colspan=5) the fotoer cells would be assigned to the first two
  columns in the table, breaking column index order. Now a cell can be
  used over multiple columns. This allows column().footer() to always
  reflect the cell that belongs to that column (possibly sharing it with
  other columns).

- Note that the footer will only use cells from the first row in the
  footer. If there is more than one row, use table().foot() to access
  the TFoot element and then manipulate it as needed.

a9035942d0 New - API: plugin(), plugin.register() and plugin.deregister() methods
- When working with plug-ins such as TableTools, there is no clearly
  defined way at the moment to get at the plug-in instance, with each
  doing it its own way (TableTools as a static function, while Scroller
  attaches itself to the settings object and KeyTable is its own
  intialiser, amoung others...) so I'm introducing these methods to
  unify this.

- plugin() is used by DataTables users to get their plugin instance, for
  example `table.plugin('tabletools')` would get the TableTools
  instance allowing full access to its API.

- plugin.register() and plugin.deregister() are called by the plug-ins
  when they attach themselves to a DataTable. The 'extras' will all need
  to be updated to use this new method.

  listening for events. Currently only the `construct` method is
  available, although others could potentially be added in future if
  they are useful. As such, the code driving it is intentionally simple
  for this cas,e but the API abstract enough to allow future expansion.

- There is no `off()` method, as I'm not sure it would be that useful.

8f975060d8 New: Server-side processing parameters update
- The server-side processing parameters used by DataTables 1.9 are very
  ugly, and rather arkward to work with, so in keeping with the
  camcelCase approach of 1.10 and its general monderisation, when using
  the `ajax` option to set the ajax url for data, DataTables server-side
  processing will now use a much more modern method of telling the
  server what data is required - specifically using arrays and objects
  in neatly formatted data.

- The old 1.9 method is invoked if sAjaxSource is used to set the ajax
  url, or if $.fn.dataTable.ext.legacy.ajax is set to true. As such,
  this change should be fully backwards compatible since `ajax` is a new
  option in 1.10.

- This new ability adds 334 bytes to the min file, primarily, because
  the old method is retained (using just the new method would actually
  reduce the size slightly).

- The bAutoCss parameter is not one that I've ever actually seen used,

  as easily be done with `div.dataTables_scrollBody { overflow: scroll

  DataTables appled style.

fb2f40a455 Removed: bScrollInfinite and iScrollLoadGap
- The infinite scrolling feature of DataTables is inadequate as a
  solution for the problem it is trying to solve as it introduces a
  number of compatiblity issues with the rest of the API parimarily
  due to the fact that it "tricks" the rest of DataTables into drawing
  just a small proportion of the table, leaving the elements which are
  currently in place. This means that DataTables doesn't realise that
  the table has additional rows at the top of the table, thus breaking
  numerous interactions with the API and confusing developers. As such,
  its a poor feature that is just taking up space and could be done much
  better externally.

- I will write an infinite loading feature for DataTables in future for
  users that do what to use this ability - there is nothing stopping a
  simple scroll event being attached to the scrolling element and
  calling the rows.add() function. This is exactly what the new plug-in
  will do.

- Scroller is a much better solution for defined length tables.

- The built in filtering formatters and type detection need to be able
  to handle just about any data being passed into them. They were
  tripping up with null data being passed in before.

e6840bd2cf New: Pagination language options (i18n) have _PAGE_ and _PAGES_ options
- Based on the discussion in forum thread 16938 DataTables now has the
  ability to use _PAGE_ and _PAGES_ in addition to the exisiting
  _START_, _END_, _MAX_ and _TOTAL_ options in the information language
  strings. This allows the developer to show paging information rather
  than record based information in the information element.

425eb38c5b Dev fix: API page.info().page should use 0 as the start index not 1
- Math.floor should be used to have page indexes starting at 0 rather
  than 1, since page(n) uses 0 based indexing.

d5eb393df9 New: DataTables tables resize automatically with window (and width="100%" attr)
- DataTables tables previously did not automatically adjust their sizing
  when the window width was changed, which let to a lot of additional
  calls to fnAdjustColumnSizing in peoples code (and support questions
  in the forums). This commit add adjustment to the sizing automatically
  for tables width have width="100%" as an attribute (we can't use CSS
  since we can't know if it is relative or absolute sizing) - extending
  what went before. This has full compatiblity with scrolling and
  non-scrolling tables. A throttle is used to not bring IE to its
  knees...

b00180b71e Dev fix: fnAdjustColumnSizing was reseting paging
- The shim layer call to api.draw() was telling the API to reset the
  paging, but it should have been holding it static (as it now does by
  passing false in to draw()).

jQuery since browser specific styles can override the W3C option. jQuery
deals with it for us.

4c317c910a New - event - column-sizing - fired when the column sizing chages
- This event allows plug-ins (specifically FixedColumns in this this
  case is what I'm thinking of, but others such as FixedHeader could
  also benefit) to alter their layout when the column sizing is changed
  (for example by a window resize).

f817e9a0be Dev fix: State saving was breaking on sort
- My fix a while back for detecting if a column was no longer available
  in a table was duff, since it used $.map which flattens its array
  return, but sorting needs a 2D array.

- Fixed by doing our own itteration

38e12beac9 Fix: Arrays in settings object shared between instances
- Because of the way _fnExtend() was deep copying objects, but shallow
  copying (i.e. references) arrays, the arrays used in the settings
  object were actually being shared between all instances of DataTables
  on a page.

- This is most noticable in the column filtering, whereby if you apply
  a filter to the column of one table, it is applied to all tables!

- The fix is to dump _fnExtend and replace it with a typical jQuery
  extend. However, one special consideration is made for the data being
  passed it - we absolutely do want that reference to be retained (that
  + the fact that extend is slow on large arrays/objects) so it is
  dumped into a temp variable which is then assigned back to the cloned
  object.

- This fixed DataTables/DataTables issue #213

a242a848d5 Fix: Individual column sorting was not distinct for multiple tables
- The `settings.aoPreSearchCols` array was being shared between every
  table on the table (test using a simple:
    $.fn.dataTableSettings[0].aoColumns ===
    $.fn.dataTableSettings[1].aoColumns
  ) which meant that a column filter aplpied to one table would be
  applied to all others.

- Fix is to deep copy the search model when adding a columns

- Fixes DataTables/DataTables issue #213

3f79e6cce4 Fix: box-sizing: border-box would cause column misalignment when scrolling
- It is far from uncommon to do `* { box-sizing: border-box; }` at the
  top of your CSS these days, including in frameworks, but this could
  cause DataTables a little bit of a problem when scrolling both
  horizontally and vertically since the padding it adds to the header
  linear element to allow it to scroll over the vertical scrollbar would
  be folded into the width of the div linear, rather than added to it.

- Fix is to simply set the box-sizing for the linear. I've decided to do
  this in Javascript rather than CSS since it is going to be needed
  regardless of the CSS being used.

f9ac4c64e2 New: Currency, formatted numbers and HTML numbers sort types built in
- This commit sees the number of built in type detection and sorting
  functions increase to cover the most common cases of use of plug-ins
  for DataTables (witht he exception of dates, for which a new first
  class plug-in will be created). Specifically, DataTables now has built
  in support for:
  - Dates (Date.parse())
  - Numeric sorting
  - Formatted numbers sorting (including currency and thousands
    seperators)
  - Numbers wrapped in HTML (link tags for example)
  - Formatted numbers in HTML
  - HTML

Although the numeric sorting plug-ins could have been collapsed down to
just two plug-ins (rather than 4) I decided to do it this way to allow
type based filter formatters to be used with the formatted number types
to allow search for "100,000" or "100000" to match the same data. This
is not built in, but it is possible (and might be in future).

- The goal with these additional functions is to enhance the abilities
  of DataTables out of the box to cover the most common cases for data
  usage - DataTables is all about making data in tables more accessable
  after all! The size cost is ~300 bytes for these additional functions
