How to make a select save its option value, but display its option text.

The way Datatables actually work is its displaying the select text instead of the text. In my case i am using GUID for the values, and seem so irrelevant to display GUID to end users. Can you please help me find a solution.

    Are you able to link us to a page showing the problem so it can be debugged please?

    The join example might be of interest to you: https://editor.datatables.net/examples/simple/join.html . You'll note that the edited data for the location contains an integer id, but the value shown to the end user is the text representation.
