Focus problems combining ColumnFilter and FixedHeader (same issues in demo)

spencerflagg

In the table I'm developing I've got ColumnFilter working perfectly, but when I add FixedHeader I lose focus on keyup when typing in the filter inputs - so I'm only ever able to filter by one character at a time. (Otherwise, FixedHeader acts as expected.)

Normally, I'd assume that the two plugins were never designed to work with each other, but I eventually found this demo that seems to assume they can comingle. http://jquery-datatables-column-filter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/fixedHeader.html

Unfortunately, the demo has the EXACT same focus issue.

Hoping someone can shed some light on this... thanks in advance.


DataTables 1.10.0-dev
FixedHeader 2.1.0-dev
ColumnFilter 1.5.1

The ColumnFilter plug-in is 3rd party and not something I can support here I'm afraid. Having said that, I think that there was a change in FixedColumns which would make that just work - the alwaysCloneTop option (which is automatically set to the value you want). Would be handy if you can link to a demo (not the Google Code one since that is using an out of date FixedHeader).
