Smart filtering search not working. #35

Not sure whats going on. I looked in the datatables documentation to make sure there wasn't something I had disabled or enabled like regex vs smart filtering. From what I can tell everything is as it should. However what I did notice was after each character entered in the search box a GET method is made. When I look at the call I notice that is not breaking up the words by the whitespace as smart filter should work, here s a screenshot http://cl.ly/image/3L3I1x0f1S2c. As you can see the first sSearch has both words rather then splitting them up. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

AFAIK that's only for client-side filtering. This plugin is for server-side. You can take a look at the component to see how searching is done. If it doesnt fit your needs, the readme has an example of to create your own search method.

Ah ok that makes more sense now. I had a feeling Smart Filtering was only a client side feature. I just saw the way the words where being submitted and I thought there was something I changed. Thank you for the brief explanation.
