Question

In jquery DataTables it is possible to add server parameters through the method fnServerData or fnServerParams :

$("#myTable").dataTable({ 

 "bServerSide": true,
 "sAjaxSource": contextApp,

"fnServerParams" : function(aoData){
    aoData.push("name":"paramName", "value":"paramValue");
}
) 

Is it possible to do the same thing through fnSettings method?

For example :

var myTable = $("#myTable").dataTable();
var oSettings  = myTable.fnSettings();
//add server paramters to oSettings

It is possible since you can manipulate “aoServerParams” in oSettings – but why would you want to do this? Its not part of the public API (and although it isn’t like to change in 1.x, it is possible).
