Date range filtering - for individual table

Busteren

Hi,

I am looking at this example on how to do date range filtering. However, I might have multiple datatables on one page and was looking at how to control these individually. So I got the start and the end date, but I don't want to use the document.getEelementById or need to use id for the table. Is this possible, if so is there any examples around?

Just looking for a vaguely way of doing this.

I've just sent you a PM on this topic .

The problem here is that the search plug-ins will run on every table on the page. So you need a little bit of logic in each one to limit it to just a specific table. Often I do that by initialising the table first and then creating the plug-in with an if condition inside the function which checks for the right table node or id. There is no way around that at the moment.

Would be able to do that, but what about the global variables included in the example:

        var min = parseInt( $('#min').val(), 10 );
        var max = parseInt( $('#max').val(), 10 );

Would it be possible to get these through the function somehow? So say I do not have access to the dom elements with #min or #max.

Seems like pushing a function onto the table before drawing (with the dates required) and then drawing. Then if the dates changes, pop the specific function and push a new search function. Not tested yet, but think it should work.
