In Views form (field 'Style options') there is text from the standard table style:

Place fields into columns; you may combine multiple fields into the same column. If you do, the separator in the column specified will be used to separate the fields.

But in the case of DataTables this is wrong – it complains about the wrong number of TD's in the table.

It doesn't complain now, but it also doesn't work – it just disappears when there are two fields in the same column or when one field is excluded from display.

Are you using the latest dev version? You might need to pull the code out of CVS to get the latest version.

Are you using the latest dev version?

Yes, I think so. It's July 30, 2010 - 16:05 with datatables.module 1.3.2.2.

Which version of jQuery plugin should be used? I tried 1.6.2 and 1.7 beta 6 – they don’t work with multiple fields in the same column. Version 1.5.6 works, but have some problems (it seems, that default sort column is calculated wrong, and when it is last column, then default number of entries displayed is 100, not 10).

This issue is still open. I had a similar problem. I have multiple coloumns and some are integrated.Datatable is still throwing errors of the different coloumns.

So I take a look into the module and found a bug
In the database.module look at row 209 

        $column_options['bSortable'] = TRUE;
      }
      $datatable_options['aoColumns'][] = $column_options;

      // Save header columns for use in expandable hidden rows.

This must be changed to 

        $column_options['bSortable'] = TRUE;
        $datatable_options['aoColumns'][] = $column_options;
      }

      // Save header columns for use in expandable hidden rows.

if not u get the wrong amount of td if u combine fields.

Greetings Bronco
