Search

So you want to set the filter in the initialisation object? Just use the option to do that: aoSearchCols Allan

:( sadness lol, the problem seems to be with themeroller. Has anyone got column filter to work with themeroller themes ?

function _fnReDraw [code] if (filter) { _fnFilterComplete(settings, settings.oPreviousSearch); } else { // No filtering, so we want to

SearchFunction() { var results = $("#table").dataTable()._('tr', { "filter": "applied" }); //line 18 } Export

I tried that, but filter functionality still does not

So basically an OR filter? You can use the

type Webkit|Presto into the filter it does the expected OR. Try disabling the filtering delay plug-in. I think

If you are using server-side processing, then all filtering is done at the server. So you'd need to integrate the custom filter into your server-side script - whatever language / platform that might be in! Allan

Use the fnFilter method to filter the table. You'll obviously need to create the A-Z links, but when clicked on, just trigger fnFilter as needed. Allan

The filter input is inside the label which creates an implicit connection between the input and the label - there is no need for a for attribute (which creates an explicit connection). This is defined in the HTML specification: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#adef-for . Allan
