multiple custom filters

k0r54

Hi,

I have multiple custom filters in my form but the second one isn't working. Is it something stupid I am doing?

[code]


$(document).ready(function() {

// Initialise the table
oTable = $('#admintable').dataTable({
bAutoWidth: false,
sPaginationType: "full_numbers",
});

$("select#purpose").change(function () {
var val = $("select#purpose option:selected").attr('value');
oTable.fnFilter (val,2,false);
});

$("select#usergroup").change(function () {
var val = $("select#usergroup option:selected").attr('value');
oTable.fnFilter (val,3,false);
});
});



Purpose

Show all

{VAR_PurposeSel[ArticleAdmin]}




User Group

Show all

{VAR_UsergroupSel[ArticleAdmin]}


[/code]

Please ignore the {VAR_... This is how I populate the drop downs within my project through php. The first one works fine with no problem but the second has no effect and no error.

Thanks

Sorry,

Please ignore, another look at the source code and my php was playing up. Sorry to waste the post!

I do have a slight other issue. For some reason I have noticed the filters seem to fail on & and brackets ().

Is there any known reason for this?

It may be a encoding issue. Depending on the context, you may need to use urlencode() or htmlspecialchars() on the text in php before using in the javascript.
