column filtering with links in the fields

danbuntu

I have a table that uses column filtering as per https://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/api/multi_filter_select.html

Some of my fields have links in them though and these are rendering the the dropdowns like:

Dan attwood">dan attwood

This stopped the filtering from working and also extends the width of the column as it's trying to fit int he additional columns.

How do I resolve this please?

I am having the same problem with some of the fields I want to filter on have links or other elements in the <td> tag causing the column filtering to not work.

I use the same code from here: https://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/api/multi_filter_select.html

I have looked around but haven't found an answer to this problem.
