what are options to replace empty() in .prependTo( $(column.header()).empty())

rprossor

I have the above in my code as part of the process of adding a filter on my .dataTable.

On loading it shows a blank box with an arrow to select options. Using it in the header replaces the column header. How can I replace the blank text in the box with the column header?

I did so only
add this code after the end of the script

function nameSelectors(){
        
        var tableFootVar = document.querySelectorAll('#example tfoot th')
        var tableHeadVar = document.querySelectorAll('#example thead th')
        
        for(var i = 0;i<tfootVar.length;i++){
                tableFootVar[i].firstChild.firstChild.innerHTML= tableHeadVar[i].innerText
            }
    };
    setTimeout(nameSelectors,3500)
