# JavaScript Library Not Working for WP-Table Reloaded

 * I have JavaScript libary enabled and set to DataTables for WP-Table Reloaded,
   and sorting and pagination enabled for my table.
 * This worked fine until I updated to version 3.0.1 a few months ago.
 * The table displays on the webpage as a static table. The sorting and pagination
   options have disapeared.
 * Any suggestions?

 * Hi
 * Thanks for your quick replies. I ended up installing the basic theme to see if
   it would work on that as I’ve edited mine.
 * It didn’t. I realised it was a simple case of not working on firefox, or at least
   my version of firefox (4.0.1). It works on IE and Chrome.
 * I love the search function. I need the table filterable on 4 criteria though.
   So in a separate question I’m trying to get a filter grid along the top of a 
   table.
 * I’m looking at this code…
 * <script language=”javascript” type=”text/javascript”>
    //<![CDATA[ setFilterGrid(“
   table1”); //]]> </script>
 * Am I on the right tracks? I’m struggling
 * Thanks again for your help
    Mike

 * Hi Mike,
 * unfortunately, I don’t recognize the code that you have posted, as it is not 
   part of WP-Table Reloaded or the DataTables JavaScript library. I assume that
   you have from some other plugin?
 * And to fix that problem with Firefox, please provide the URL to the page with
   your table.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hi
 * Here’s the url
    [http://www.bandsforgigs.co.uk/the-band-database](http://www.bandsforgigs.co.uk/the-band-database)
 * It works on chrome and IE
 * The code I put up is from: [http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/tablefilter.shtml](http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/tablefilter.shtml)
 * as I’m trying to make a table dynamically filterable on 4 columns.

 * Hi Mike,
 * thanks for the link.
    I can confirm, that the DataTables features are not working
   in Firefox, but I have no idea why 🙁 I suggest that you try asking in the DataTables
   forums at [http://www.datatables.net/forums](http://www.datatables.net/forums),
   as the developer might be able to help.
 * Unfortunately, I also don’t know if that tablefilter script can be used together
   with DataTables. That might be something that you could also ask there.
    To then
   include the script, you will need to load a JavaScript file into the page’s header
   and then that code that you already posted, but with a changed class name in 
   it.
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias
