Where can I find information about what types of searches can be done in the search field?

Thanks

Its a string search - it will match any string found in a row, with word (space) separation. If you want something more complex you can use fnFilter for regex or simple string filtering, or use plug-ins to create your own custom filtering: http://datatables.net/development/filtering
