Search

Dear all, I solved in this way, but i dont' know if the best way!! [code] $('table tr:contains("KEY_STRING")').each(function(){ oTable.fnUpdate('lalalal',(oTable.fnGetPosition(this)), 3) }) [/code] thanks, Antoino

Ah, sorry I missed that. That works perfectly. Thank you.

On further investigation with help from noel, it would appear that the issue is that IE (and Opera) put a newline character after a tag when I read the content from a cell to decode HTML entities. This breaks the search unfortunately. The fix is to find this line: [code] oSettings.asDataSearch[i] = nTmp.textContent ? nTmp.textContent : nTmp.innerText; [/code] And add this just after it: [code] oSettings.asDataSearch[i] = oSettings.asDataSearch[i].replace(/\n/g," ").replace(/\r/g,""); [/code] I'll release a bug fix version of DataTables with this included it it in the near future. The bug will only be triggered in rows which have HTML entities and BR tags in them. Regards, Allan

DataTables attaches a keyup listener to that text box - so anything that causes that to be removed would effect this. Visual Event ( http://sprymedia.co.uk/article/Visual+Event ) will be able to tell you f the event listener is still attached to the node or now. Allan

got it, thank.

Darn! I was tracing with firebug and i just saw that... i was jumping over here to say I figured it out and save you having to answer. :) Thanks again!!!

Never mind. Found the answer here: http://datatables.net/forums/comments.php?DiscussionID=501&page=1#Item_0

Haha! So obvious - when you point it out! Thank you.

is how I did filtering: [code] $("#ButtonFilter").click(function() { oTable.fnFilter( $("#input1").val(),

There are two ways to do this: Make your own text box on the page and don't allow DataTables to draw it's own (i.e. use sDom) Remove the event DataTables binds to the textbox it creates and then add your own event handler. Either way you will need to call fnFilter on each keyup event for a textbox (i.e. $('#whatever input').keyup( function () { oTable.fnFilter( this.value, 1 ); } ); You can see an example of who number 2 might be achieved with this plug-in which binds it's own event handler to the tables input box: http://datatables.net/plug-ins#api_fnSetFilteringDelay Allan
