datatables search function no longer working on using variable var mySearch

tchall

For some reason my search box stopped working after I added a link to the search box with a prefilled item
in this case A2M

I have uploaded the code to https://jsfiddle.net/c3fL2oej/2/
I would be exceptionally grateful if someone could please point out my error
many thanks
Tom

You have this structure in each row:

<td>https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/investment-tools/shares/dividends?Codes=A2M

Looks like each row has A2M in it. Use https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/investment-tools/shares/dividends?Codes=A2M">Orthogonl Data to extract the www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/investment-tools from the string, or whatever portion of the string you want to filter for the filter operation.
