yskapell · December 2022

Hello all,

I search all day yesterday but could not find any reply to my question

I have a code on which to some replacement with specific confition on editor search field .

Everything is ok with the replacement except I cannot change it on the search filed.

for example: if I type a3 instead of getting ǎ I get a3 .

I tried the below but nothing. any idea?

$('#vocabulary_filter').val(s);

Use the search() API with the search term. It will update the search input and perform a search of the table.

$('#vocabulary_filter').search(s).draw();

I fix it!

I change

$('#vocabulary_filter').val(s);

to

$('#vocabulary_filter input').val(s);

and worked!

No. search() is a Datatables API. See the examples in the docs. Something like this:

var table = $('#example').DataTable();
 
table.search( s ).draw();
