GridviewFix is a helper jQuery plugin that solves the compatibility problem in between .NET Gridview and dataTable plugin.
// DATA_TEMPLATE: empty_table
oTest.fnStart( "fnDrawCallback" );

/* Fairly boring function compared to the others! */

$(document).ready( function () {
	/* Check the default */

	var oSettings = oTable.fnSettings();
	var mPass, bInit;
	
	oTest.fnWaitTest( 
		"Default should be null",
		null,
