table.search.fixed is not a function. Why?

VladimirDremine

I am using same scripts as in the example https://datatables.net/examples/plug-ins/range_filtering.html, but getting this error(also just copied example code to my own js file).

My js files:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.7.1.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/v/dt/dt-2.0.3/datatables.min.js"></script>

My code:

const table = new DataTable('#discovery-list', params)

table.search.fixed('range', function (searchStr, data, index) {
            var min = parseInt(resultForFiltering[0])
            var max = parseInt(resultForFiltering[1])
            var age = parseFloat(3) || 0; // use data for the age column

            if (
                (isNaN(min) && isNaN(max)) ||
                (isNaN(min) && age <= max) ||
                (min <= age && isNaN(max)) ||
                (min <= age && age <= max)
            ) {
                return true;
            }
          
            return false;
          });

Not sure why you are getting the error. I copied your code snippet into this test case and no error:
https://live.datatables.net/luyivofa/1/edit

I'm not sure what you are doing with these 3 statements:

            var min = parseInt(resultForFiltering[0])
            var max = parseInt(resultForFiltering[1])
            var age = parseFloat(3) || 0; // use data for the age column

So I replaced them with the ones in the example. I added the inputs and the event handlers and the test case works properly.

Possibly you have something loading in the wrong order. Make sure you are loading datatables.js only once. We will need to see the issue to help debug. Please post a link to your page or a test case replicating the issue.
