Please refer to the example above.

When i search "tiger 1" in search box, it shows me 1st row by searching on id column and name column.
I would like to know how could i perform the search based on keyword "tiger 1" where "tiger 1" is a complete search one.
My desired result should be column containing word (tiger 1) inside column 'Name'. But when I search it with this keyword, it returns me result based on ID and Name column.

Please let me know how do achieve this result.

Thanks in advance.

You will need to turn off smart searching as described in search() docs. I updated your example to demonstrate this using the API:

Depending on your requirements you can turn this off globally using search.smart. Or you can create your own search functions as depicted here:
