Hi Allen,
I know that DT is not designed for this but I think you can give some advice..
I have a database for library catalogue, with many fields. I use DT to show them as a table using Ajax. The DT search is available for only the fields shown in the DT.
Suppose I write another PHP file with a general search form. I want to find all records matching the criteria and show it on a DT. How can I do that with Ajax? Without Ajax it is working as I pass the search parameters and query the DB with these. But I need Ajax as the returned resultset is large.
Any ideas is very much appreciated.
