Search

As standard, SearchPanes will use OR logic when multiple selections have been made. However at times it may be desirable to implement AND logic instead, for example to eliminate rows from the dataset. Note: When using columns.searchPanes.combiner along with searchPanes.cascadePanes you must make sure that your data is appropriate for the selection that you make. searchPanes.cascadePanes was developed with the default or logic in mind, using and logic will work in the majority of cases, but may yield some unexpected results when deselecting in a very small amount of cases. Note: When using columns.searchPanes.combiner with array data the row will be returned if all of the selections are present within the array, although other data may also be present.

By setting a class name, specific panes can be targeted for custom styling. Custom Panes can have custom classes applied in a similar way to how columns.searchPanes.dtOpts are applied to panes. You can declare the columns.searchPanes.className option within an object of the columnDefs array - this will apply the custom class to that pane.

This option is an alias to searchBuilder.columns, which should be preferred when using DataTables 2+. It can be used to configure SearchBuilder regardless of how the panes are inserted into the document (layout or searchBuilder). Please refer to the documentation for searchBuilder.columns for full details of this option.

This value allows a custom title to be set for any column within SearchBuilder. If a value is set then it will be used to represent the column in the "data" select element. If it is not set then the title of the column will be used instead. In both cases any html that is present will be stripped.

that is defined by columns.render. columns.SearchBuilder.orthogonal is also available

SearchBuilder uses this option to decide which option within the condition select should be initially selected when a user selects that column to filter. By default SearchBuilder will select the first item in the condition select, which is typically the condition title.

The Editor inline() and bubble() methods trigger individual field editing based on certain elements on the page (typically table cells) and will attempt to determine what field in the Editor form should be the one that is edited based on the given table cell. However, automatic detection isn't always possible, particularly when working with joined database tables where it is quite common to display a label value in the DataTable display column, but edit a related value (a database id column for example) when editing the row's data. This option provides the ability to tell Editor what field(s) should be edited when a particular column is activated for editing using inline() and bubble(). The values this option can take are defined by the field names that are used for the Editor form (fields.name). Any field name defined in the Editor instance can be used as a value here. As of Editor 1.5, for bubble() editing this option can be an array of field names to allow multiple fields to be shown for editing at a time.

This parameter can be used to define the width of a column, and may take any CSS value (3em, 20px etc). Please note that pixel perfect column width is virtually impossible to achieve in tables with dynamic content, so do not be surprised if the width of the column is off by a few pixels from what you assign using this property. Column width in tables depends upon many properties such as cell borders, table borders, the border-collapse property, the content of the table and many other properties. Both DataTables and the browsers attempt to lay the table out in an optimal manner taking this options all into account.

You can control the default ordering direction, and even alter the behaviour of the order handler (i.e. only allow ascending sorting, reverse the default sequence, etc) using this parameter. Values that can be given in this array are: asc - Ascending order desc - Descending order (i.e. empty string) - data index order. Note that this option is available as of DataTables 2.0 and newer. Prior to DataTables 2 this option defaulted to [ 'asc', 'desc' ]. DataTables 2 added the third option to the array with the empty string included in the default for the no sort state. If you would like to use the DataTables 1.x behaviour, set the default using: DataTable.defaults.column.orderSequence = ['asc', 'desc'];

tables that have some columns hidden via display: none,

if ($.fn.DataTable.isDataTable('#cons-pd-datatable')) { $('#cons-pd-datatable').DataTable().destroy(); } var columns = []; columns.push({ data: "prod_name", title:

I tried different configuration but no luck, i want to ignore the first column and display details when the rest of columns are clicked . responsive: { details: { type: 'column', target: 1 } }, columnDefs: [ { className: 'dtr-control', orderable: false, targets: [1, 2, 3, 4] } ],

I use the following columns structure throughout my site.
