Search

HI , i am working on datatable custom searchbuider, its not working fine for a column which have dropdown in it . let say it has three options in dropdown, the custom searchbuilder is merging all options and showing as a single value. i want there, a dropdown , having all option , as in that column . see , i have three options 1-voted, 2-not voted ,3- requested but its merging all as single .

Hi, I stumbled over https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/68111/single-column-searchpane-on-header-mouseover and as it is from April 2021 mentioning an update in summer, I could not find any reference in the current documentation, if this has been implemented nor a sample configuration. As I would actually love to see the feature, has it be implemented OR is this still Work in Progress? Thanks a lot Rainer

Is is possible to customize the conditions in the searchBuilder for specific fields? For example, with some field I never want to offer "ends with" or "does not contain". Only some fields can handle "between". That kind of thing. It seems that you can customize the condition based on type https://datatables.net/extensions/searchbuilder/customConditions but I'm wondering if there's a way to do it based on the specific field. I'm using a custom server-side processing script, so I only want to present to the user operators and conditions that are handled by the server.

The database deals with banking transactions for home networks needing to have budget planning and tracking actual banking at home. This table will not be used as a published website. In order to avoid duplication with incorrect spelling of vendors I have created a table of vendors. However, trouble exists. I would appreciate reviewing of the attached html, php and js files. and let me know the resolution(s). Thanks John

hi, has any one done user research around column filters pattern? https://datatables.net/extensions/fixedheader/examples/options/columnFiltering.html i just want to check how much comfortable people are using this.

I am beginner to datatables and jQuery. I want to show the filter select list on click of respective header and keep hidden otherwise. I tried the below code, but it doesnt seem to be working. Also I wanted to change the list contents dynamically of other dropdowns when one is selected. For example, in web page on selecting Airi Satau, I can see all the position in dropdown instead of only Accountant. Please help. Thanks! initComplete: function () { var api = this.api(); api.$('th').on('click', 'th', function () { e.preventDefault(); debugger; api.columns([0, 1]).every(function () { var column = this; var select = $('All') .prependTo($(column.header())) .on('change click', function (e) { e.stopPropagation(); var val = $.fn.dataTable.util.escapeRegex( $(this).val() ); column .search(val ? '^' + val + '$' : '', true, false) .draw(); }); debugger; column.data().unique().sort().each(function (d, j) { select.append('<option value="' + d + '">' + d + '</option>') }); }); })},
