Using "headerCallback" function to display dynamic data

Khalid Teli

Hi,
As shown in the test case, I used the "headerCallback" function to display the data in headers.

live.datatables.net/vupigede/1/edit

However, I am struggling to put this logic in,

I want to display the single record in the header. for example if I search position by global dropdown filter position = Technical Author and type in start date using search box start date = 2009/01/12 the age= 36 should be displayed in the header as a single record
and if if position = Technical Author and start date = 2012/08/06 the age = 59 should be displayed in the header as a single record

Thank you

Just an update for the question I asked, I kind of find a way of doing it but not sure if this is the right way.

What I did is , put theage column in global filter and based on the selection it displays the start date from first row.

I'm not too clear of the goal, but if it works...
