I'm just having some trouble initializing a DataTable using Ajax and PHP. According to the inspector the error is:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined jquery.dataTables.js:2649
(anonymous function) jquery.dataTables.js:2649
oSettings.jqXHR.$.ajax.success jquery.dataTables.js:8749
c jquery.js:3048
p.fireWith jquery.js:3160
k jquery.js:8235
r jquery.js:8778
I've followed the instructions as on datatable website but apparently I'm doing something wrong. It's not the php part, I've just checked it and it is returning a json file.
Here's what I've got.
Thanks in advance.

<table id="datatables">

<tr>
<th>email</th>
<th>Last Name</th>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Date Registered</th>

Here's the script:
$(document).ready(function(e) {
$('#datatables').dataTable( {
"bProcessing": true,
"sAjaxSource": 'process.php'
} );
});
Just in case you need to take a look to the php code:
<?php
try {
$conn = require_once 'dbConnect.php';
$sql = "SELECT email, lastName, firstName, state, dateRegistered FROM Users";
$result = $conn->prepare($sql) or die ($sql);
if(!$result->execute()) return false;
if($result->rowCount() > 0) {
$json = array();
while($row = $result->fetch()){
$json[] = array(
'email' => $row['email'],
'lastName' => $row['lastName'],
'firstName' => $row['firstName'],
'dateRegistered' => $row['dateRegistered'],
'state' => $row['state']
);
}
$json['success'] = true;
echo json_encode($json);
}
} catch(PDOException $e) {
echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
