Search

correct. The text string "Search" and the input element

daniel_r this is the proper way: You'll need to set your "sDom" correctly to remove the search and disabled pagination. check the following: http://datatables.net/usage/options#sDom and http://datatables.net/usage/features#bPaginate those 2 should sort you out

allan are you there it say now "it is ajax error and for more information go http://datatables.net/tn/7, but the page is not working "404", when i want to search "ı,İ,ğ,Ğ" ?

name column. When I search "forum" all the rows

Its not possible to disable search for some rows - all rows are treated equally in DataTables, but it can be done for columns using bSearchable . Allan

Hi again, I just find out the issue :) There was an old piece of js executed just after the dataTable initialization which messed up the search. You can delete/close this discussion. Regards, Elo

it behaves as Global search. I have used servlet

with: [code] /* Modify the search index for this row

I sorted out this by adding new textbox on page and hiding the default search textbox and setting search function on new text box the function for search text box is: $('#txtSearch').keypress(function () { oTable.fnFilter($(this).val()); });

You might try individual column filtering http://jquery-datatables-column-filter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/default.html instead of the global search.
