    We're happy to take a look, but as per the forum rules, please link to a test case - a test case that replicates the issue will ensure you'll get a quick and accurate response. Information on how to create a test case (if you aren't able to link to the page you are working on) is available here.

    Cheers,

    Colin

    It seems strange that search wouldn't trigger for certain words. Assuming you are using client side processing searching defaults to using smart mode which might result in more matching search results than you think. What happens if you type mar1?

    If you want to see if the search is triggering you can use the search event to console.log output each time the search triggers.

    Can you provide an example with your data showing the issue?

    Without seeing the problem it will be impossible to diagnose. Searching will always trigger whether you type mary or mari. There must be other matches in your table that you are not aware of.

    Are you using a custom search that you built?

    Are you using server side processing?

    using simple code
    $('#example').dataTable({
    "aaSorting": [
    [0, "desc"]
    ]
    });

    More import is an example of your data that is not working. Can you build an example for us please?

    its working after upgrade DataTable
    @version 1.9.4 To 1.10.15
    but not sure the exact reason

  • kthorngrenkthorngren Posts: 20,309Questions: 26Answers: 4,770

    Are you saying it is working now?

    The screenshot only shows me that you have a row with Mary. Is this after trying to search?
