Searching- an exact match

Sorebo

When searching through a specific columns using a select - I don't want it to filter smartly.
If I search by code for example, and I look for '0 %', I don't want it to find all the '100 %' as well as all of the '50 %'.

oTable.columns(4).search(clusRegex, true);

where clusRegex looks something like (searchstring1 | searchstring2 | undefined) since I am using a multiselect, i need multiple searchstrings in.

What can I do to make it search for exact matches instead of partials?

I am really stuck here, does anyone what the arguments of the search functions have. And how I can tune them to only search for exact matches?

Use a little regex like in this example.

Thank you very much Allan, this was the thing I was missing.

.search( val ? '^'+val+'$' : '', true, false )
