How do I send an argument to fn.dataTable.ext... functions ?

Mazhar123

Hi, I am using DataTables and using $.fn.dataTable.ext.search.push utility for range searching. Here is the snippet -

$.fn.dataTable.ext.search.push(
function( settings, data, dataIndex ) {
//Some code
);

Apart from, settings, data and dataIndex, I want to send one of my own variable as an argument anytime I want. How do i do that ?
Can anyone please help ?

Hi @Mazhar123 ,

That's not possible I'm afraid. One alternative though would be to use a global variable instead.

Cheers,

Yes, that's what I was using (Global variable). Thanks @colin
