Re^2: DataTables.net (jQuery plugin)

    Well, in a nutshell, I am struggling with my own laziness, I guess. I was hoping to find a working example using a server-side Perl script that I could copy, deploy on my server, and tweak to point at my own test tables using a DBI/DBD::Oracle driver.

    Since I'm new to jQuery, I was hoping to minimize the moving parts and get a simple version of my own working -- then I can add to it to accomplish what I need.

      I am struggling with the same issue. I've tried to get DataTables to work with Perl and Oracle. I get the query to run, but none of the DataTables features work. The sort, search don't work. I tried DataTables.pm, but it ONLY works for MYSQL.

      Oh look :D DataTables - a server-side solution for the jQuery DataTables plugin
        Yes, I saw Adam Hopkins' module, but v 0.03, four years ago, referencing a legacy version of the datatables.net libraries scared me off. I was hoping to find a more recent implementation against the current version of the jQuery plugin ...
