JSONP is a method of using JSON data from any server, regardless of XSS protection that modern browsers use. It is very useful for being able to retrieve JSON data from any domain name you choose and is easy to integrate with DataTables, thanks to jQuery's Ajax handler, as shown in this example.
| Rendering engine | Browser | Platform(s) | Engine version | CSS grade |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Loading data from server | ||||
| Rendering engine | Browser | Platform(s) | Engine version | CSS grade |
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 | $(document).ready(function() { $('#example').dataTable( { "bProcessing": true, "bServerSide": true, "sAjaxSource": "scripts/jsonp.php", "fnServerData": function( sUrl, aoData, fnCallback, oSettings ) { oSettings.jqXHR = $.ajax( { "url": sUrl, "data": aoData, "success": fnCallback, "dataType": "jsonp", "cache": false } ); } } );} ); |
The code below shows the latest JSON data that has been returned from the server in response to the Ajax request made by DataTables. This will update as further requests are made.
