Search

I'm only an user from datatables. But I had search for retrieving hidden values. And I found a script maybe you can use to retrieve normal columns. The first part can be needed for problems with pagination. https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/35210/jquery-doesnt-take-hidden-td#latest

suggestion and a little search, I found this link

$("#vendor-messages-list").DataTable({ "columnDefs": [ { "visible": false, "targets": [11] }, { "orderData": 11, "targets": [0] } ], "language": { "search": "Filter Search:" }, "lengthMenu": [[25, 50, 75, 100, 200, -1], [25, 50, 75, 100, 200, "All"]], "order": [[3, "asc"]], "pageLength": 25, "pagingType": "full_numbers" }); defaults: $.extend($.fn.dataTable.defaults, { responsive: true });

Yes, but I only got the index of the column and the search value, how can I get the name of the column ?

improved site and forum search which I think will

Yes, definitely my doing. It was being reset somewhere in the code, not to collide with the default DataTables search box (while we still had it). Please disregard, works fine.

how can I do that? As far as I am aware there is no option for that with an HTML select element. A quick Google search found this SO thread for example. Allan

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.
