Hello
I am trying to use filterexpression in a rich:datatable. The RichFaces documentation gives a sample using a JSTL function ( <rich:column filterExpression="#{fn:containsIgnoreCase(cap.timeZone,
filteringBean.filterZone)}">). This requires another field to be defined that contains the filter expression.
What I want is to use the default filter mechanism given by RichFaces, but have a custom filter ; e.g:
Without the fitler expression, the above code produces a table with the field and a box below it to enter the filter value and the default retuns 'startBy'.
I'd like to add a filter expression that gives me a 'Contains Ignorecase' filter as mentioned previously - i.e., get me all records that have the particular column with matching values.
Has anyone done something similar?
Thanks in advance
Chandra
