column(id) bug?

Hello, i/m trying to add some custom datatable + editor to my web page. And i faced one strange problem. My table is exactly the same as https://editor.datatables.net/examples/advanced/joinArray.html, but with my database info ofc. And i'm trying to add some custom search to this table like:

// "my_table" is a name of the table var.
$("#myButton").click( function(){ my_table.column(1).search("Test").draw(); });

and it doesn't work at all (doesn't procwss search). I found, that problem is that .column(id) selector doesn't work.

  1. I tryed somwthing like this at first: $("#myButton").click( function(){ var x = my_table.data(); alert(x); }); and it's working fine.
  2. Then i tryed this: $("#myButton").click( function(){ var x = my_table.cloumn(1).data(); alert(x); }); and in that case it doesn't work.

I will be very gratefull to see any suggestions.

    How are you initialising the table - or more specifically what is my_table? My guess is that you have $(...).dataTable() - but you want $(...).DataTable() - see the FAQs.
