Hello Allan, I wont AUTOMATICALLY insert strings into the input field, only when i click on one of my 16 text links. My Datatable looks like this: [code] < script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> var oTable; /* Formating function for row details */ function fnFormatDetails ( nTr ) { var aData = oTable.fnGetData( nTr ); //<![CDATA[ var sOut = '<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="padding-left:50px;">'; sOut += '<tr><td>Name:<\/td><td>'+aData[1]+'<\/td><\/tr>'; sOut += '<tr><td>Zusatz/Info:<\/td><td>'+aData[2]+'<\/td><\/tr>'; sOut += '<tr><td>Stra

Hah! Damn - thanks for pointing that out. I'll take a look at and address that in the next release. Thinking about providing events which you can bind to in future for this kind of thing as well - hopefully make it easier :-) Regards, Allan

in case someone googles: cf. http://datatables.net/forums/comments.php?DiscussionID=4147 [code] oTable.fnFilter( '^$', 4, true, false ); [/code]

Nevermind, I figured it out by playing with this demo: http://datatables.net/examples/api/regex.html For anyone else who may be curious as to how this is accomplished, the js for doing what is described above is: [code] $('#documents_table').fnFilter('Articles of Incorporation|Bylaws', null, true, false); [/code]

No plans for DataTables core. Should be fairly easy to loop over the data and replace what you are looking for though. fnGetData and fnUpdate will help here. Allan

It's encouraging to hear the datatable object can be accessed in 1.7. Until then though... :( Initializing the table is not a problem at all. The trouble is I am supporting an application written by someone else and he initialized it in each php. I was hoping I could resolve it in the js itself by just accessing the object directly. Oh well, guess I gotta do it the hard way. But thanks to both of you for clearing it up. Regards, Sabier

Sounds odd - do you see that behaviour here as well: http://datatables.net/examples/data_sources/server_side.html ? It does cause a 'redraw' (which could be caught by checking for the return key and quitting out - I might do that) - but it doesn't return an empty result set. Allan

Oh, now I get it. Excellent! This will work just as good for me. Thank you very much!

Hi, fantastic it is working fine. Thanks allan Gnaniyar Zubair
