DataTables 1.10.3 also includes 11 bug fixes, as well as a number of updates for the documentation and examples.

A blog post is available details some of the new features of this release.

New: Ability to use columns.data with a DOM sourced data to read the row information into an object rather than an array (the default)
New: Row, column and cell selectors can be provided as custom functions, providing the ability to select based on data, or any other parameter
New: cells().render() and cell().render() methods to trigger the rendering methods for the orthogonal data types. Similar to the cache() methods but this will specifically trigger a render and also provides access to the type and display options which cache() does not. Generally it is expected that this will replace the cache() methods
New: $.fn.dataTable.util.throttle() static utility method. This provides extension authors with an easy way to throttle function calls
New: column().dataSrc() and columns().dataSrc() methods which provide the ability to obtain the data source parameter for one or more columns
New: iterator() API documentation
New: searchDelay parameter that controls the throttle frequency for search requests using the global input text box

Update: iterator() updated to execute the callback in the scope of an API instance referring to the table in question
Update: Improved last page calculation - e.g. Suppose there are total 12 records and page size is set to 5 records/page. Go to last page, which should be 3, change page size to 10. Page#2 should be selected and it should show 2 records on it.
Update: bower.json updated with ignore, keywords and license

Fix: Javascript error when using smart filtering with quotes for exact matching
Fix: Native Date instances weren't being detected as a date type
Fix: jQuery UI integration when used with ColReorder could cause the wrong header to be shown as sorting
Fix: If language.decimal was given as a decimal point, rather than the default decimal sort being performed, decimals were just being stripped
Fix: Correct parameter for disabling paging
Fix: destroy() when a child row was shown resulted in a JS error
Fix: Numeric sorting for 0 was incorrect
Fix: Example SQL database had extension field as an integer. However, that meant that numbers such as 0001 were not correctly saved
