basic search help

I am testing out DT with a basic search example. Any idea why the following is not working?

You can just move doSearch() outside initComplete to make it work but perhaps you were wondering why it doesn't work to call it from inside initComplete. That, I don't know

Thanks for the reply, that's correct I realized i could move it around to get it to work. but I'm wondering what's the logic behind it not working inside initComplete.

Within initComplete, the initialisation wouldn't have completed, so table would be undefined. You can use this.api() to get the table object there - something like this: http://live.datatables.net/bedukufu/6/edit
