Drop down selected only

sandro33

Hi,

i have a mysql/php table with drop down select.
I want to export the table in csv but when i do it all options of my drop downs select appear. i just want the option "selected" in the export.
How it's possible ?

Thanks

Sandro

You would need to provide a custom formatting function like in this example.

The problem is caused by the fact that the export uses $().text() to get the data to export, so it basically just strips the HTML. In your case you'd need to provide a function that will get the text value of the selected option element only.

You could use DataTables state saving options. stateSaveParams and stateLoadParams are probably the two options you want to look into.
