jQuery DataTables plug-in employs 'multiple-criteria-multiple-column' filtering using DataTables API. In addition to conventional 'match all the criteria' logic, 'append to selection' operation is available.
Filter itself coded as a DataTables feature plug-in, so in order to use that, you must specify 'F' among your DataTable 'dom'/'sDom' options:
var dataTable = $('#mytable').DataTable({
sDom: 'tF'
});Search is implemented using external search plug-in, so DataTables smart search feature is not in effect.
Since the filtering is done client side, plug-in is not capable to filter DataTables operating in server-side processing mode (serverSide: true option).
To start using plug-in, you may simply refer to mFilter.js, mFilter.css within 'head' section:
<head>
<script src="js/mFilter.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/mFilter.css">
</head>To include mFilter remotely:
<script type="application/javascript" src="https://cdn.mfilter.tk/js/mfilter.min.js"></script>
