When attempting to use the buttons extension I noticed that the ColVis button appeared and popped up the list when clicked. However, when I clicked on a column from the list it gave the following error in the JavaScript:
Object doesn't support property or method 'andSelf'
According to the jQuery documentation the andSelf() function was depricated in version 1.8 and replace by the addBack(selector) function. See the documentation here in order to apply the correct patch to the extension.
