Retaining search criteria in jQuery DataTables
<p>I am new to jQuery DataTables. I am working on an existing project that uses datatables. On one such screen when a value is entered in the search textbox, filtering takes place globally as well as on columns. Currently in my application every time I hit this screen Search textbox appears blank. This is not the expected behavior. I want to retain the search text so that the next time I visit this screen, I dont have to type the search criteria again. Is there a specific property of a DataTable which should be set in order to reset the search text? </p>
