How to dispense with the search box

joeller

According to the article on the "dom" option the way to make the search box not show up is to declare the dataTable as

$('#example').dataTable( {
"dom": 'lrtip'
} );

I did this for my table

       $('#tblContractLots').dataTable({
           "aaSorting": [],
           "dom": 'lrtip'
       });

But the search box was still there. What am I missing.

I think you can simply do this:

$('#tblContractLots').dataTable({
    bFilter: false
});
