Search

I need to convert data to diferent format before sent it to the server. Lets say i need to build a dynamic sql query I need to run obj.prepareData(value, true); obj.setDML(value, true); 'value' is the search input value

This is correct. If you search the forum for "rowspan" you'll find a number of other discussions where I confirm this. DataTables does not currently support rowspan or colspan in the table border I'm afraid. Allan

If you search for keyword 'ataxia' and months '7' then you get the error. It should return 260 entries but the javascript for datatable no longer works.

There are two options: 1. https://datatables.net/reference/api/columns().search(), leaving columns blank will search all columns 2. Using this plugin, https://github.com/vedmack/yadcf, and this example, http://yadcf-showcase.appspot.com/dom_source_externally_triggered.html.

How does the search function works , does it

My question is - why search option is not working?

class='fa fa-cog fa-spin fa-2x'></i>", "search": "<label for='filterField' class='sr-only'>Filter results</label>",

using please? Doing a search in the DataTables source

This is a jQuery selector question more than a DataTables one. A quick Google search for jQuery selector wildcards found this page where I believe the top answer will do exactly what you are looking for. Allan

on this topic. Example. Search for "fixed row sorting"
