#text_search

New Functionality Requests
#1

Hello Team,

#text_search is searching for the hidden values of the row also.

If a row is defined with a custom checkbox using input tag(), when we use #text_search for the values “2”, it is focusing on the first row instead of the row containing “2” as a string variable.

is there any fix to use #text_search for only front end displaying values instead of hidden variables?

Thanks,
Dumpa

Unfortunately there is no way to use text_search in such way

Hi,

Thanks for the response.
We need ONLY label search, but presently #text_search is searching both for labels and values.

So, can you please provide any suggestion for label search only ?

Thanks,
Dumpa

#text_search uses current content of the cell for search purposes, If you are using HTML element as value of cell - they will be used in search.

You can modify dhtmlxgrid.js, locate there method _get_cell_value and replace

return this.cells3(row, ind)method ? method : “getValue”;

with

return this.cells3(row, ind)method ? method : “getValue”.toString().replace(/<[^>]*>/,"");

which will remove html tags during value retrieving, so during search html tags will be ignored as well.

Hi I am newbie for DHTMLX, Trying to implement DHTMLXGRID header filter, below is my Code

var tree = new dhtmlXGridObject('gridbox');		   
		tree = new dhtmlXGridObject('gridbox');	
		tree.setImagePath("dhtmlx/dhtmlxGrid/codebase/imgs/icons_greenfolders/");
		tree.setHeader("Column A,Column B");
		tree.attachHeader("#text_search,&nbsp;");
	 //	tree.setFiltrationLevel(-2);
	    tree.makeSearch('stext',0);
	 	tree.setInitWidths("300,200");		 	 
		tree.setColAlign("left,left");
		tree.setColTypes("tree,ed");
		tree.enableAutoHeight(false);
		tree.enableAutoWidth(true); 
		tree.setColSorting("str,str");
		tree.init();
		tree.setSkin("dhx_skyblue");

a) try to remove tree.enableDistributedParsing(true);
b) in case of treeGrid 2.6, search functionality will not expand rows to show search result, so if you have match inside a closed branch, it will not be opened.
