I have a current jQuery DataTable in place that is functioning properly:
var $dataTable = $('#example1').DataTable({
"ajax": 'api/tableSearch.php',
"iDisplayLength": 25,
"order": [[ 6, "desc" ]],
"scrollY": 600,
"scrollX": true,
"bDestroy": true,
"columnDefs": [{
"targets": 0,
"render": function (data, type, full, meta){
return '<a class="editLink" href="#">Edit</a><a class="deleteLink" href="#">Del</a>':
}
}]
});
As stated, the above code works accordingly...the search filter works, the sorting works, everything works.
What I would like to do is add a column search to this datatable, as shown here:
https://www.datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/api/multi_filter_select.html
I attempted to add the code from the link above to my current code, as follows:
var $dataTable = $('#example1').DataTable({
"ajax": 'api/tableSearch.php',
"iDisplayLength": 25,
"order": [[ 6, "desc" ]],
"scrollY": 600,
"scrollX": true,
"bDestroy": true,
"columnDefs": [{
"targets": 0,
"render": function (data, type, full, meta){
return '<a class="editLink" href="#">Edit</a><a class="deleteLink" href="#">Del</a>':
}
}], // begin here
initComplete: function(){
this.api().columns().every(function(){
var column = this;
var select = $('<select><option value=""></option></select>')
.appendTo( $(column.footer()).empty() )
.on( 'change', function () {
var val = $.fn.dataTable.util.escapeRegex(
$(this).val()
);
column
.search( val ? '^'+val+'$' : '', true, false )
.draw();
} );
column.data().unique().sort().each( function ( d, j ) {
select.append( '<option value="'+d+'">'+d+'</option>' )
} );
} );
}
} );
});
I have not received any errors, and the DataTable still loads, but the column search is not there.
I am using jQuery-2.1.3.min, so it should be up to date.
Does anyone see what I am doing wrong and what I can do to correct this issue?
Add a <tfoot>
to your table. The expression referencing column.footer()
expects it to exist.
