Remove duplicates from search results

dougal

Currently we use a range search for 4 datatables on 1 page. 1 of the tables has duplicate results if the search range is large enough.

example data

001 - 100 result1
50 - 100 result 2
150 - 200 result1

So if i do a search for a range between 50 and 200 result 1 would appear twice. Is there a way or removing these duplicate results?

There isn't a built in way of doing that I'm afraid. You would need to use a custom filter that keeps track of the values that have gone before and check to see if the current value matches one that has been seen before - if so then filter it out.

Reset the store of tracked values whenever the loop counter is 0.
