  In the example you mention - this is the key line:

  .appendTo( $(column.footer()).empty() )

  Change it to append the element to wherever you want it to appear in your document.

  Allan - thank you! I would buy you a decent beer for that! I looked at that code and didn't see that, and now - it's quite obvious.

  Could you tell me how to pick couple of columns to create "select" filters? Don't want to generate them for all columns, just column #2 and #3 for example. Where I need to specify which columns I am interested in?

  Funnily enough, an ale at 11am on a Monday morning is strangely appealing ;-)

  Could you tell me how to pick couple of columns to create "select" filters?

  Refering to the same example, on line 4 we have:

  this.api().columns().every( function () {
  

  That is using columns() to select the column. By default it selects all but the column-selector option can be used to refine that.
