sir i am binding my jquery datatable from database.i am getting data in my json object oldDataset variable like

var oldDataset= [
{"aptid":1,"businesname":"skulink","ownrnm":"rajiv"},
{"aptid":2,"businesname":"prodegios","ownrnm":"sanjeev"}
]
but it's not binding in my grid but when i pass static dataset of an array like this format then it binds the table.
var newstring=[
["1","skulink","rajiv"],
["2","prodegios","sanjeev"]
]

so how do i convert my oldDataset like newstring

What I have tried:

JavaScript

$(document).ready(function () {
       $.ajax({
         type: "POST",
         url: "userControls/Wsc_comn.asmx/bindapttable",
         data: "{}",
         contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
         dataType: "json",
         success: function (msg) {

                var data = msg.d;
            $('#example').DataTable({
             data: data,
             columns: [

                 { title: "aptid" },
                 { title: "businesname" },
                 { title: "ownrnm" }

             ]
           });
         }
       });


     });

HTML

Solution 1

The data you are getting is in JSON format but the datatable is expecting a simply multi-dimensional array so you need to convert your JSON into an array

JavaScript

var newstring = [];
for(var i = 0; i < oldDataset.length; i++) {
    newstring.push([oldDataset[i].aptid, oldDataset[i].businesname, oldDataset[i].ownrnm]);
}

So use the debugger to step through and see what's happening\not happening.
