title: Footable fine filtering
body: <p>I have this code to have a select field filter through a Footable. It works but it's straining more results than needed. Example: "Article in National Journal" option is filtering rows with both "Article in National Journal" and "Article in International Journal". How can I make it more precise? Thank you. </p>
  
  <pre><code>jQuery(function () {
      jQuery('#projectos').footable().bind('footable_filtering', function (e) {
        var selected = jQuery('.filter-status').find(':selected').text();
        if (selected &amp;&amp; selected.length &gt; 0) {
          e.filter += (e.filter &amp;&amp; e.filter.length &gt; 0) ? ' ' + selected : selected;
          e.clear = !e.filter;
        }
      });
  
      jQuery('.clear-filter').click(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        jQuery('.filter-status').val('');
        jQuery('#projectos').trigger('footable_clear_filter');
      });
  
      jQuery('.filter-status').change(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        jQuery('#projectos').trigger('footable_filter', {filter: jQuery('#filter').val()});
      });
    });
  </code></pre>
