Pagination not working when using post

Pagination not working when using post

Hello

I use datatable since a long time for a internal website. Due to proxy I had to change a request from get to post and impossible to have pagination working. It is working well when using type: "GET"

I need to use service side processing because the table has more than 80000 values

This is the code:

    var table = $('#inventory').DataTable( {
      "language": { "infoFiltered": "" },
     // "ajax": "server_processing.php?c=VMINVENTORY&t=<?php echo strtotime(date_format($dateLastInventory , 'F j, Y, g:i a')); ?>",
           "ajax": {
                    url:"server_processing.php?c=VMINVENTORY&t=<?php echo strtotime($check->getSelectedDate()); ?>",
                    type:"POST"
                     },
      "deferRender": true,
       "lengthMenu": [ [10, 25, 50, 100, -1], [10, 25, 50, 100, "All"] ],
      "search": {
        "smart": false,
        "regex": true
      },
       "dom": 'Blfrtip',
       "buttons": [
            'copy',
            'excel',
            'csv',
            'print'       
        ],
      "columnDefs": [
      { "targets": [ 0,  6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12,13, 15, 16, 17, 19,18,20,21,22,23,24,25,26], "visible": false } ,
      { "searchable": false, "targets": [ 21,22 ] }
      ],
        "processing": true,
      "fixedHeader": true,
      "serverSide": true,                                      

} );

Is there a know bug in datatables?

    impossible to have pagination working.

    What does that mean? What happens? What are you seeing?

    Make sure your server script is setup up to process POST parameters instead of GET.

    "Make sure your server script is setup up to process POST parameters instead of GET."

    How to do that?

    That depends on what you are using for your server script. If you are using the PHP SSP script provided by Datatables then see this example. Click the Server-side script tab.

    What are you using for your server side script?

    Hello Kevin

    Thanks, with your help i have replaced
    echo json_encode( SSP::simple( $_GET, $sql_details, $table, $primaryKey, $columns, $joinQuery, $extraCondition) );

    to

    echo json_encode( SSP::simple( $_POST, $sql_details, $table, $primaryKey, $columns, $joinQuery, $extraCondition) );

    And it works :)
