Description

Hi,
I've found a problem with internationalization plug-ins.
If you use a datatable as input and you specify config.language.url parameter, datatable doesn't show.

For example (using resource json file provided in examples):

config: {
      language: {
          url: "../resources/fr.json"
      },
  }

I've just tried with nested.html and select.html and it doesn't work. I think it's a bug.

Research direction

Start with the nested.html and select.html examples and reproduce the failure using config.language.url with the provided fr.json resource. Trace why the datatable does not appear when the language URL is configured; done means both examples render correctly with the localized input.
