Search in column doesn't work properly

christof1

Hey!

I'm quite new to data tables but I actually really like. Nevertheless, I already have my first problem.

Search the table actually works, but I don't want to get 10, 11, 100, ... if I search for 1.
I've already tried to do the trick using fnFilter() and creating an own text input field and search using table.search("^"+this.value+"$", true, false, true).draw();. But none of my "solutions" did work. Using regular expressions in the "normal" search field which always gets created like ^#1$, doesn't work, because nothing gets shown. Although ^#1 works (but logically also shows 11, 12, 13, ...)

The column I'm talking about looks like this

1

2

3

4

...
In order to have the right sorting I use columnDefs: [ { type: 'numeric', targets: 0 }, which works.

Do you have any idea of what I have done wrong?

Thank you in advance!

Problem solved using $('#id').DataTable().column(0).search("^"+this.value+"$", true, true).draw();
