Search

No it doesn't. I don't know why it is matching it on your English row - it must appear somewhere in the row's data. We'd need to see it to know why for sure. Allan

I don't really understand - what comma separated columns? DataTables doesn't use comma separation for columns (except TableTools' CSV export I suppose). Allan

Since you're using Java you might want to consider using JED along with DataTables to display your data. Check out: http://jed-datatables.ca/jed/

Allan, Any luck with this one?

As noted in the forum rules, link to a test case please. Allan

Is it possible to initialize the search input text on load with a string taken from the URL ? Use the oSearch option to specify an initial search. You'd use the window.location option in Javascript to get information from the url. Allan

tried doing this not working [code] $("#renderingSportFilter").each( function ( i ) { this.innerHTML = fnCreateSelect( oTableLeague.fnGetColumnData(1)); //1 sportid = fnCreateSelect( oTableLeague.fnGetColumnData(5)); //1 $('select', this).change( function () { oTableLeague.fnFilter($('sportid').val() ,$(this).val() ); } ); } );[/code]

Allen, Thank you again. I was SO CLOSE!!! As you can see from my code, I was putting "All" as the value when I should have put it as the text for the option tag. DataTables takes the value of the "empty string" to display all of the values in the column. By default DataTables has no text for the for the option where the value is the "empty string." I hope that my question helps others. You may want to consider making "All" the default text for the option tag. Again I can only say, "Doh!"

Thanks for such a fast reply, I'll check that build right away :)
