Search

If you enable server-side processing, did you implement the search, sort and paging code needed on the server-side? The page Kevin linked to describes the full requirements from a client-side point of view. Another option is to use our Editor .NET libraries which do support server-side processing at the back end.

@kthorngren yes this jQuery ajax() was my second option, I knew about this, but I thought it is possible with datatables. thank you.

Hi colin, Really nice, I haven't seen it, sorry. It works very well. Thank you very much.

Ah, I've realised you can remove it from the Editor definition. That seems to work!

That what I was searching for! Thank you so much, its working! Lifesaver!

No, that should always work - as you're just accessing an element in the DOM, Colin

Two things: First, if you run the JSON through a validator. you'll see an error with quoting. This might just be an effect of the cut&paste, but it's worth taking a look. Second, you have specified turnier_details as ajax.dataSrc, but that's just an object. I suspect you want ajax.dataSrc to be turnier_details.angemeldete_mannschaften to get that array. You would then remove angemeldete_mannschaften from all your columns.data, Colin

I created a test case for

Use a jquery selector to choose the columns you want to clear the text using jQuery text() to clear the text value. This is specific to the 2nd column: $('#example thead tr:eq(1) th:eq(1)').text('') See this example: http://live.datatables.net/mowobugu/2/edit You may be able to workout a jjQuery selector to choose all the th tags that don't have input tags. Another option is to apply a class to the columns you don't want the search input and use that as the selector. Lots of options depending on what works best for your specific situation. Kevin
