datatables sent parameters

This is generic CF question.

Anyone have experience with jQuery datatables? Did you have any success in using the “serverSide” mode, in getting CF to properly parse the parameters sent by datatables to the server into complex variables? For example, instead of chucking “columns[0][data]” to form[“columns[0][data]”], we can instead access it properly through form.columns[1].data?

According to the documentation at Server-side processing, it says that “In most modern server-side scripting environments this data will automatically be available to you as an array.”. Is CF simply too out-of-date? I’m using CF11.

Thanks.
