Multiple rows in THEAD that includes filtering, plus hiding/showing columns

Eric

I found some other posts here where others were trying to put their inputs for filtering in the thead, along with the column headers, thereby having 2 rows in thead. The problem was that the row with inputs, even if using td instead of th, could not be hidden with DataTables.

I couldn't find a solution, has anyone found one or worked one up?

Thanks!

The documentation for the column visibility function (fnSetColumnVis) notes: "this function does not support 'complex headers' (colspan and rowspan on columns) or multiple rows in the header / footer." http://datatables.net/api#fnSetColumnVis , so until I get a chance to work on that code an improve it, or someone else fancies having a go, this is not something that will work I'm afraid.
