                        <p>By default DataTables will read the data to show in the table from the <i>aaData</i> property of the object returned from the server. By using the initialisation option <b>sAjaxDataProp</b> you can customise this to whatever you wish. This examples shows it being set to 'demo'. Note that this option will also work with server-side processing. Additionally, it is possible to set <b>sAjaxDataProp</b> to be an empty string, which results in DataTables treating the given data source as the table data array (rather than as property of an object).</p>

30	<h1>Preamble</h1>
31	<p>By default DataTables will read the data to show in the table from the <i>aaData</i> property of the object returned from the server. By using the initialisation option <b>sAjaxDataProp</b> you can customise this to whatever you wish. This examples shows it being set to 'demo'. Note that this option will also work with server-side processing. Additionally, it is possible to set <b>sAjaxDataProp</b> to be an empty string, which results in DataTables treating the given data source as the table data array (rather than as property of an object).</p>
