  Great work, Allan.
  
  As a new DataTables and Editor user, I can say that, along with the outstanding support, these have been some of the best libraries that I have used in a long time. I'm extremely happy with my investment as they've opened up a whole new world of opportunities that I've been putting off far too long.
  
  Cheers,
  
  Kevin P.

  I did a diff on the file and you have been a busy boy. After a 15 minute beat on it test it is working as expected, which I have to say it was working before. So the good news for me is that nothing was broken (that I make use of) and with the changes there will likely be some other happy campers with your fixing.

  DataTables has a set of (currently) around 2900 unit tests which are run in all primary browsers before release. Any failures will halt the release until it is addressed. These unit tests help to ensure that DataTables remains solid between releases. I know the pain of trying to upgrade software myself and then finding out a bunch of stuff doesn't work!

  OMG. Someone that actually does unit testing. I love it! No wonder the quality is so high.

  Heh! It doesn't result in perfect code, but is sure does help in heading in that direction :-). the unit tests have caught many a bug over the years since they were introduced in 1.5. Couldn't recommend TDD more!

  My pages that worked fine in 1.9.2 don't work anymore with 1.9.3 or 1.9.4
  It seems that sDefaultContent isn't processed anymore
  
  [code]
  "aoColumns": [
  ...
  {sName" : "ivaperc", "sWidth" : "40px", "sClass" : "right"},
  
  { "sName": "id",
  "sWidth": "60px",
  "sClass": "operazioni center",
  "bSortable": false,
  "bSearchable" : false ,
  "mDataProp": null,
  "sDefaultContent": " "} ],
  [/code]

  @max4ever - As noted in my post, can you post your issue in a new thread so we can keep track of individual issues rather than making this thread very confusing.
  
  Please also link us to a page that shows the problem.

  i found out the problem, it was mDataProp not working in 1.9.4 even though documentation says [quote]"Note that prior to DataTables 1.9.2 mData was called mDataProp. The name change reflects the flexibility of this property and is consistent with the naming of mRender. If 'mDataProp' is given, then it will still be used by DataTables, as it automatically maps the old name to the new if required."[/quote]
  i changed mDataProp everywhere with mData and it now works

  There is unfortunately a bug in 1.9.4 if you set mDataProp to `null` - that is not propagated to the newer mData . Other values should work okay, but `null` is broken at the moment. Fixed in git.

  I am using the latest version of dataTables. This was taken from v1.8.2
  
  [code]
  "aoColumnDefs": [
  { "aTargets": [0] },
  { "aTargets": [1] },
  { "aTargets": [2] },
  { "aTargets": [3] },
  { "bSortable": false, "sWidth": "75px", "sName": "Details", "aTargets": [-1], "fnRender": function (oObj) {
  return 'Edit Record'
  }
  }
  ]
  [/code]
  
  The 5th Column was getting generated by the fnRender. Now I am getting an Error unknown Parameter. What is the new way of coding this?
  
  Thanks
