Hi @vimi.lad , This here should do the trick. It's the same as yours but working with the input elements in all columns. Cheers, Colin

dom: "rtBp", ajax: "functions/control_documents.php", columns: [ { data: "File.File_Name" }, { data: "File.File_Desc"

to apply the same columns.render function to multiple columns. Kevin

Alternatively, return your seconds in a hidden column and use it for sorting from your "human" column. columns: [ // Sort column 1 (human) using data from column 2 (seconds). { data: "human" , orderData: [2] }, { data: "seconds", visible: false, searchable: false }, ....

included like below, but no luck var table = $('#tblConsolidatedReport').dataTable({ "data": table_data.Table, "columns": columns, "destroy": true, "cache": false, "ordering": true, "scrollX": true, dom: 'Bfrtip', buttons: [ { extend: 'copy', attr: { id: 'allan' } }, 'csv', 'excel', 'pdf' ] });

east1999 , Searching in two columns has never worked (only

column = columns[0]; // } // else { // column = columns[ currCol+1 ]; // } row--; } else if

along with the other columns. Kevin
