Hi friends thank you for the great data table plugin. I have to filter my table based on hidden columns. I tried to use the api oTable.fnVisibleToColumnIndex(); to change the column index but no welfare. Can you give me a detail example on the above mentioned function?

    DataTables example


    @import "datatables/media/css/demo_table.css";










    $(document).ready(function() {

    $.fn.dataTableExt.oApi.fnVisibleToColumnIndex = function ( oSettings, iMatch )
    {
    return oSettings.oApi._fnVisibleToColumnIndex( oSettings, iMatch );
    }

    $('#example').dataTable( {

    "aoColumnDefs": [
    { "bSearchable": false, "bVisible": false, "aTargets": [ 2 ] }, { "bVisible": false, "aTargets": [ 3 ] }] } ).columnFilter(

    {
    "bJQueryUI": true,
    sPlaceHolder: "head:before",
    aoColumns:[{ type: "text" ,sSelector: "#filter1" },{type:"text" ,sSelector: "#filter2"},{type:"text",sSelector: "#filter3"},{type:"text",sSelector: "#filter4"},{type: "text",sSelector: "#filter5"}]
