Filter by discrete values

hvjackson

I'm using DataTables for my web application and am looking for a way for the user to filter a dataset by discrete values (not text search).

E.g. a picklist in each column header where a user could filter the table data by the value of specific columns, (like this: https://codeontime.com/blog/2012/06/working-with-picklists/image11.png )

Or alternately something like the search results on Amazon.com where on the left there are categories you can refine with, by selecting one or more values.

Any thoughts on how to implement this?

you can use my yadcf plugin for datatables for that purpose, see showcase page
