text_filter

Hi,

I am doing a text_filter on one of my grids. the text filter works fine except that I can not put a wild card search.
For example I want to search for a word that begins with "B" and ends with "S" something like B*S or B????S for searching a six letter word that begins with "B" and ends with "S".
Do I have to create my own filter for this type of filtering? If, so can you point me to the right direction?


Thanks

Florante

Unfortunately dhtmlxGrid filters havent wild card search functionality. To implement custom filtering you can use "onFilterStar", "onFilterEnd" events or filterBy method. Please see more information here http://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGrid/doc/articles/Data_filtering_search.html#grid_fsing
