How to get exact match using fnFilter?

问题:

I'm using fnFilter in datatables and while trying to filter "inv" everything else starting with "inv" also get filtered. that is "invc", "invk" are also showing in filtered result. How to solve this and get the exact matches only?

code:

$("#user-lock-status-filter select").change(function() {
        oUserTable.fnFilter($(this).val(), 12);
    });

回答1:

Change this

oUserTable.fnFilter($(this).val(), 12);

to

oUserTable.fnFilter("^"+$(this).val()+"$", 12, false, false); 
//disabling smart search/regex and apply your own search
