is there a way of using logical operators in the search box?
for example AND, OR, NOT?
that would be very useful in the large datatable...
thank you for creating this extremely useful software.

    Hi inkykong,

    DataTables does an 'AND' by default, however, you can use regular expressions to do complex filtering such as NOT and OR ( http://datatables.net/api#fnFilter ). And if you want to do even more complex searches, you can use the filtering API: http://datatables.net/development/filtering

    Regards,
    Allan
