How to configure Editor to work with Server-Side processing?

Hi Allan, and thank you for your great job!
I need to set up an editor enabled datatables with support for server side processing. The provided examples do not cover this configuration since the datasource specified are based on the datatables Php Libraries for both the ajaxUrl and the sAjaxSource parameters.
This is what I have tried:
1) set up a php/mysql server processed datasource and it works correctly when editor is not enabled;
2) set up a Datatables PHP Libraries based datasource and it works as expected when the editor is enabled;
3) set up an editor enabled datasource using different datasources for ajaxUrl and sAjaxSource: in this case datatables does not load any data and returns the error "JSON data from server could not be parsed".

Am I missing some part of the documentation?

Thank you


This is the code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" id="init-code">
			var editor; // use a global for the submit and return data rendering in the examples

			$(document).ready(function() {
				editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor( {
					"ajaxUrl": "php/browsers.php",
					"domTable": "#example",
					"fields": [ {
							"label": "Browser:",
							"name": "browser",
							"className": "allan"
						}, {
							"label": "Rendering engine:",
							"name": "engine"
						}, {
							"label": "Platform:",
							"name": "platform"
						}, {
							"label": "Version:",
							"name": "version"
						}, {
							"label": "CSS grade:",
							"name": "grade"
						}
					]
				} );

				dt = $('#example').dataTable( {
					"sDom": "Tfrtip",
					"sAjaxSource": "php/server_processing.php",
					"bServerSide": true,
					"sServerMethod": 'POST',
					"aoColumns": [
						{ "mData": "browser" },
						{ "mData": "engine" },
						{ "mData": "platform" },
						{ "mData": "version", "sClass": "center" },
						{ "mData": "grade", "sClass": "center" }
					],
					"oTableTools": {
						"sRowSelect": "multi",
						"aButtons": [
							{ "sExtends": "editor_create", "editor": editor },
							{ "sExtends": "editor_edit",   "editor": editor },
							{ "sExtends": "editor_remove", "editor": editor }
						]
					}
				} );
			} );
		</script>
