Modify DataTables warning: JSON data from server

I have two question on Datatables plugin. 1. When ever I have something wrong with the database I get this error on my page which doesnt seem to be a friendly error. I want to modify it to custom error display when there is a problem from the database or due to expired session. Can I know how do I modify that on my client side using javascript or something. 2. I need to make all the rows in a column or multiple columns to be a hyperlink so that if I click on that link I have some details.

I really appreciate the help from experts.

For question one - you may ask DataTables to throw an exception rather than display an alert. Then you could catch it and handle gracefully, 

$.fn.dataTableExt.sErrMode = 'throw';

for expanation, see:

Datatables allow you three ways to solve question 2

  1. Modify sever side to get hyperlinks
  2. Use fnRender function to build hyperlink on-the fly
  3. Use mDataProp as function to build hyperlink only in view

Difference between 2 and 3 is in the last case you will get a powerful tool to modify data by your needs
