title: Read Value of Hidden Column in JQuery
body: <p>I need to hide a column on the table, but after that I cannot read selected row's hidden column value.</p>
  
  <pre><code> dtTable = $('#lookupTable').DataTable({
         "columnDefs": [
             {
                 "targets": [ 0 ],
                 "visible": false,
                 "searchable": false               
             }
          ],  
  
          aaData: data,
          aoColumns: cols,
          paging: false,
          scrollCollapse: true,
          destroy: true
  
      });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>as you see the first column is hidden now. And I am trying to read the column value with that code</p>
  
  <pre><code>    selectedIndex = $(this).find('td:eq(0)').text(); 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>if i delete &lt;"visible": false> from the code i can read the first column's value, but if it is hidden it gives me second column value.</p>
  
  <p>I tired to change "witdh" property but it didnt work..</p>
