Search and Sort Function on Columns with forms
Search and Sort Function on Columns with forms

Posts: 1Questions: 1Answers: 0
I have my data tabe which has following columns-
ID Name |Group | Date
In this table, each entry in Name column and Group column are actually forms(with one hidden input and the other input is the value represented in the column) such that clicking on the name entry for a given row takes you to another webpage where all the entries match that given name and similarly for the group name.
(Note that these are different forms on each of the 2 columns and not a form on the entire row)
Now since I am using the value in the given row at the given column as the input with input type=submit,
the search as well as sort on the columns(Name, Group) is not working since these columns have inputs as the values in place of string values.
Could someone please provide me with some help to solve this?
Both the sort by column as well as search feature is essential for my project.
I am a newbie when it comes to use DataTables. Any help would be greatly appreciated
