Server-side/MS SQL question

Hey guys, i need a bit of help getting my server-side-processing code working. Ill start out by saying im new to DataTables, as well as the programming field in general so please pardon me if my questions are REALLY dumb :) So my current task at work is making a web interface to view/edit data from our server. Its a MS SQL server and they are having me use DataTables for the web end. So far ive gotten it so that it reads and displays correctly. Right now I am trying to implement it so that it sends back the add/delete/edit commands correctly but after a couple weeks of working on it and reading on here, have had 0 luck. Here is my current code:

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"  pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="form" uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags/form" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="fn" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions"%>
<%@ page session="false" %>
<jsp:include page="header.jsp" />

	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="content/css/dataTables.tabletools.css" />
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="content/css/dataTables.editor.css" />

<script>
 
$(document).ready(function() {
	$('#demo').html( '<table class="display" id="example"></table>' );
	
	var editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor( {
        "ajaxUrl": "dataTable/edit",
        "domTable": "#example",
        "fields": [ {"label": "ID:","name": "id"}, 
                    {"label": "Version:", "name": "version" }, 
                    {"label": "Name:", "name": "name" }, 
                    {"label": "Application Name:", "name": "applicationName" }, 
                    {"label": "Application Version:", "name": "applicationVersion" }, 
                    {"label": "Availability:", "name": "availability" }, 
                    {"label": "Baseline Load:", "name": "baselineLoad" },
                    {"label": "Color", "name": "color"},
                    {"label": "Implementation ID", "name": "implementationId"},
                    {"label": "Quantity", "name": "quantity"},
                    {"label": "Label", "name": "label"},
                    {"label": "Location", "name": "location"},
                    {"label": "Application Owner", "name": "applicationOwner"},
                    {"label": "Architecture Owner", "name": "architectureOwner"},
                    {"label": "Data Owner", "name": "dataOwner"},
                    {"label": "Is Ola Agreed?", "name": "isOlaAgreed"},
                    {"label": "Is Recognized", "name": "isRecognized"},
                    {"label": "Is Strategic", "name": "isStrategic"},
                    {"label": "Resolved Time UTC", "name": "resolvedTimeUtc"}
        ]
    } );
	
	$('#example').dataTable( {
		"bJQueryUI": true,

		"sPaginationType": "full_numbers",
		"iDisplayLength": 5,
		"sDom": 'T<"H"fl>t<"F"ip>',
		"sAjaxSource": 'dataTable/getData',

		],
		 "oTableTools": {
	            "sRowSelect": "multi",
	            "aButtons": [
	                { "sExtends": "editor_create", "editor": editor },
	                { "sExtends": "editor_edit",   "editor": editor },
	                { "sExtends": "editor_remove", "editor": editor }
	            ]
	        }
	} );
});

</script>

<table>
	<tr>
			<td><div id="sidebar"><jsp:include page="sidebar.jsp"/></div>
		</td>
			<td><div id="demo"></div>
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>
<jsp:include page="footer.jsp" />

Now based on everything I've read and had told to me, i need to put in

 bServerSide: true, sServerMethod: 'POST' 

problem right now is how my work had me set this up i use

 "sAjaxSource": 'dataTable/getData', 

not a PHP file. According to the examples on here (http://datatables.net/examples/data_sources/server_side.html) I need to use a PHP file. Now first off i cant quite tell if the section of PHP posted in the example is supposed to be the entire code, or just added to a pre-existing Server_processing.php file. Now either way.....im not sure how to combine having to use a PHP with our /getData method.....

Anyone with any clues on what i could try?
