JQuery Datatable w/checkboxes

I’m piggybacking off of this post in hopes that someone can help me out,

I’m pretty much doing the same, with a few exceptions. 1) I’m using a combination of PHP (CodeIgniter), JQuery & Ajax when rendering my tables. 2) Users submit a query, which then calls to a .js file which returns the results to table.

The problem (I think) I’m encountering is that since my table and its contents are rendered dynamically, I cannot get your example to work. While everything renders, when clicking on a checkbox, it doesn’t remove that corresponding table row.

My code is below, with “Do it here?” where I think it should go?

Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!

My .js page that calls to my backend to get the query results and push the to the display:

var readUrl   = 'index.php/public_search/readEvents',
     dataTable,
    buyUrl = 'index.php/public_eventdetails/eventdetails';

$( function() {


    readEvents();


});



function readEvents() {
    //display ajax loader animation
    $( '#ajaxLoadAni' ).fadeIn( 'slow' );

    $.ajax({
        url: readUrl,
        dataType: 'json',
        success: function( response ) {

              for( var i in response ) {
                  response[ i ].buyLink = buyUrl + '/' + response[ i ].event_id;
              }

            //clear old rows
            $( '#eventRecords tbody' ).html( '' );

            //append new rows
            $( '#readEventsTemplate' ).tmpl( response ).appendTo( "#eventRecords" );

             //apply dataTable to #records table and save its object in dataTable variable
            if( typeof dataTable == 'undefined' )

          dataTable = $( '#eventRecords' ).dataTable();

      //DO IT HERE???
      $(':checkbox[name="rendering_filter"]').click(function() {
                    var filter = '',
                        regexFilter = true,
                        smartFilter = false;

                    filter = $('[name="' + this.name + '"]:checked').map(function () {
                        return this.value;
                    }).toArray().join('|');
                    $('#eventRecords').dataTable().fnFilter(filter, 0, regexFilter, smartFilter);
                });


            //hide ajax loader animation here...
