My snippets below shows a datatables example that has 3 rows, I have added an extra column in column definition "action" and I m setting its display/data via default content and render functions respectively.
every time I try to build an JSON data containing the column "action" val i fail. I added the cell click listener (disabled in this action) just to make sure that the data is stored in the API data collection and it is indeed, yet it fails to show up after building the values.
if you click "build vals" you will see how the "action" data is not included in JSON. if you click "Mark for delete" and then "build vals" the "action" data will show up.
any idea how to make it work?
