Can I update a hidden column

Hi,

Great work on datatables - thanks.

I have a datatable which has some input fields in it. To allow filtering and searching I put the value from inside the input into a hidden column and use this for filtering and searching (so search/filter doesn't include the INPUT HTML tags). Is there a way that onchange() of the input I can change the value in the hidden column to the new value in the input so that the filtering and searching still works?

Thanks,
Ed

    Hey,

    In case anyone else comes across this, the solution I found was to use fnUpdate

    There's a useful thread about it at: http://www.datatables.net/forums/discussion/1063/fnupdate-for-a-single-cell/p1
