merge the button and search code

Kindly, how can I merge the button and search code? the errors are that it can't be initialized or it won't run it for me. Thank you



$(document).ready(function() { var table = $('#emp-table').DataTable( { lengthChange: false, buttons: [ 'copy', 'excel', 'pdf', 'colvis' ] } ); table.buttons().container() .appendTo( '#example_wrapper .col-md-6:eq(0)' ); } ); $(document).ready(function () { // Setup - add a text input to each footer cell $('#emp-table thead tr') .clone(true) .addClass('filters') .appendTo('#emp-table thead'); orderCellsTop: true, fixedHeader: true, initComplete: function () { var api = this.api(); // For each column api .columns() .eq(0) .each(function (colIdx) { // Set the header cell to contain the input element var cell = $('.filters th').eq( $(api.column(colIdx).header()).index() ); var title = $(cell).text(); $(cell).html(''); // On every keypress in this input $( 'input', $('.filters th').eq($(api.column(colIdx).header()).index()) ) .off('keyup change') .on('change', function (e) { // Get the search value $(this).attr('title', $(this).val()); var regexr = '({search})'; //$(this).parents('th').find('select').val(); var cursorPosition = this.selectionStart; // Search the column for that value api .column(colIdx) .search( this.value != '' ? regexr.replace('{search}', '(((' + this.value + ')))') : '', this.value != '', this.value == '' ) .draw(); }) .on('keyup', function (e) { e.stopPropagation(); $(this).trigger('change'); $(this) .focus()[0] .setSelectionRange(cursorPosition, cursorPosition); }); }); }, }); });

    I'm not sure if that's a cut&paste error, but you have DataTables initialisation options dangling from line 29 onwards.

    We're happy to take a look, but as per the forum rules, please link to a test case - a test case that replicates the issue will ensure you'll get a quick and accurate response. Information on how to create a test case (if you aren't able to link to the page you are working on) is available here.

    When you combine them you need to make sure you add the comma separator between the options, for example:

        var table = $('#emp-table').DataTable( {
            lengthChange: false,
            buttons: [ 'copy', 'excel', 'pdf', 'colvis' ],  // Added comma to separate teh options
            orderCellsTop: true,
            fixedHeader: true,
            initComplete: function () {
                var api = this.api();
      
                // For each column
                api
                    .columns()
                    .eq(0)
                    .each(function (colIdx) {
                        // Set the header cell to contain the input element
                        var cell = $('.filters th').eq(
                            $(api.column(colIdx).header()).index()
                        );
                        var title = $(cell).text();
                        $(cell).html('');
      
                        // On every keypress in this input
                        $(
                            'input',
                            $('.filters th').eq($(api.column(colIdx).header()).index())
                        )
                            .off('keyup change')
                            .on('change', function (e) {
                                // Get the search value
                                $(this).attr('title', $(this).val());
                                var regexr = '({search})'; //$(this).parents('th').find('select').val();
      
                                var cursorPosition = this.selectionStart;
                                // Search the column for that value
                                api
                                    .column(colIdx)
                                    .search(
                                        this.value != ''
                                            ? regexr.replace('{search}', '(((' + this.value + ')))')
                                            : '',
                                        this.value != '',
                                        this.value == ''
                                    )
                                    .draw();
                            })
                            .on('keyup', function (e) {
                                e.stopPropagation();
      
                                $(this).trigger('change');
                                $(this)
                                    .focus()[0]
                                    .setSelectionRange(cursorPosition, cursorPosition);
                            });
                    });
            },
        } );

    You didn't make the changes I suggested. I updated your test case:

    Note that I used the Download Builder to get the buttons and Bootstrap code needed for the test case to run properly.
