Does the filter() API support HTML-backed tables?

dr_barto

My table is populated statically in HTML. Running the filter code below does not work (the filter callback is never executed); running the same code with a programmatically populated table (via the data property) works as expected.

var filteredData = this.table.column(3).data().filter(function(value, index) {
  console.log('filter called');
  return value > 20 ? true : false;
});

Is this behavior by design, or should the HTML-backed table be filterable as well?

Yes it should be, and this example shows it working. We'd need a link to a test case, per the forum rules, showing the issue.

Thanks for the example -- apparently I had an error in my code; after some copy&pasting from the sample, it works now
