I had felt the same way about Datatables, which is why I ended up writing Dynatable over the course of a couple years. Tried to take a somewhat different approach that felt more natural to use.

That looks really really nice. It's like it was built with javascript in mind rather than strVisualBasic i6.0 ;). I'm going to rip datatables out of my current project and put this in.

Have you considered (or implemented) col or row spans? A particular dataset I have to work with has multilevel column and row titles - so I've avoided using datatables for that.

Thanks! It has been considered, and is planned, just hasn't been implemented yet. There's a lot more discussion about it here: https://github.com/alfajango/jquery-dynatable/issues/30
