Search

Okay I figured it out. On click, do this: $.fn.dataTable.ext.search.push(function( settings, data, dataIndex ) { if ( data[7] == clickedState || data[8] == "Red" ){ return true }else{ return false; } }); table.draw();

thanks

The val() method is the key one here. Use that to both get and set values for fields. You could also use field().get() and field().set() if you want to be more explicit. Allan

sorted it. i created a new array, looping

You would need to use an action option as a function (buttons.buttons.action) and have it call edit() to edit the selected row. Then use field().val() to set the value and submit() to submit the form. Apply a condition to the server-side code so that if the update happens, the row is excluded from the data set. Allan

For complex queries that looks about as good as it gets :-) Allan

Problem solved. Sorry, plz close.

That is something that should be resolved with the Buttons 1.2.2 release. My guess is that you are using 1.2.0 or 1.2.1. Allan

Thank u allan.. You are Just amazing..
