Search

Solution: http://live.datatables.net/ziluwiki/10/edit Issue 1 Solution: I did an "else if" to solve the last index issue as it was outside of the if condition. Issue 2 Solution: The index numbers did not adapt to the rows when search is applied, so I changed the data source from all records to only sorted records displayed. New data source: sortedNews = table.rows({ filter: 'applied' }).data(); Hope this helps anyone who is attempting to do an index column for merged rows! DataTable, please support this as an API in the future!

Glad you got it sorted! Note: this issue forced me to finally upgrade to the most recent versions of datatables en editor as well. So not all time was wasted, after all :-) I still have to do that today :neutral:

I get an alert every time I refresh page. What is the alert? You have 8 columns in the HTML table but only define 7 in columns. Looks like the 8th column you are trying to define in columnDefs. Try moving that to the columns option so you have 8 entries in the columns. Kevin

This forum is for Datatables questions. Sounds like you need support for a different product - Table Press. You will want to use there support forum. Kevin

Not sure exactly what your question is. Maybe this thread from yesterday will answer your question: https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/comment/157962#Comment_157962 If not please provide more details about what you want to know. Kevin

This was necessary. Thank you very much!

Thanks heaps Allan. I'm equally grateful for your answer, and solution, as I am to you trying to give me an out for what was indeed my stupidity :smile: Thanks so much to both yourself, Allan, and also Colin, much appreciated.

No. But your own above won't work with print either I'm afraid. Allan

That's not really something that DataTables itself does. You'd need a page which contains a DataTable that is populated by a conditional SELECT query (e.g. a WHERE statement). That condition would be the user name or id or something else depending on the structure of your database. The think to think about here is not how DataTables will do that for you, but rather how to do it without DataTables (i.e. a plain HTML) and then use DataTables to enhance that table. Allan
