Hi Kevin, That looks like a really excellent plugin - might have to give it a try. The one thing it doesn't do that I need it to - is *filtering*. That is, say I am returning rows and one of the columns is a city - and there may be multiple rows with the same city data. I want to be able to choose 'Dublin' and then only have rows which have dublin as a city returned.
And then... I want to be able to continue sorting and paging through my ajax'd data! Fun eh ;) When I get something working I'll try to post it up somewhere... as long as I can make it readable etc!
