Filter criterion is not saved in the cooki state

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1.  Create any table 
2.  Make a button to reload this table
3.  Run the table and enter a criteria to filter something
4.  Reload the table, see that the column filter boxes are shown empty
5.  See that the content is still filtered, filter is only removed if box is 
focused and entered any new key

Reproducible on any browser, tested on Chrome and Opera.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Make it an setup option. I use the state cookie of datatables. Very nice, 
columnfilter should append to that and display correctly or not use state 
saving at all.

You are right, current custom filter is not saved in the cookie, and therefore 
it is lost once the table is refreshed.
I working on it, but it is tricky because I want to use the same cookie that 
dataTables uses, and if I make any error dataTables will crach.
This feature wil be added in next version when I'm confidient that is works 
fine.

Is the "custom filter" what is applied to the column filter (sorry for possibly 
not understanding the terminology)? DataTables saved the column filter 
information in aoPreSearchCols, so you can possibly loop over that and 
repopulate the settings from there. DataTables won't automatically set the 
values of the inputs since it knows nothing about them for individual columns - 
unlike the global filter which is does set.

Hi,

I have not used cookie plugin but I have created page where state is saved in 
the cookie. Could you take a look at 
http://jquery-datatables-column-filter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/stateSave.html 
and let me does it works for you too?

Use the latest version of plugin.

Thanks,
Jovan

bStateSave works, but the checkbox filters don't maintain a checked "ticked" 
state!
