In this tutorial, I will share how to create bootstrap filter tables. In this example, we will add a search text box at the of the bootstrap table.

This filter will help you to save your time to filter the data listed from the table. If you want to create the table filter suing bootstrap framework, then keep your close eye on this post as I a, going to share how to create bootstrap filter tables with an example.
Let’s create filter table using bootstrap. First, create a table.html file and for filter table, make sure you have included the below external CSS & JS files before head tag closed.
1 2 3 | <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css"> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> |
copy the below HTML code and paste it into the body area or where you want to display filter table.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 | <div class="container"> <h2>Filterable Table</h2> <input class="form-control" id="myInput" type="text" placeholder="Search.."> <br> <table class="table table-bordered table-striped"> <thead> <tr> <th>Firstname</th> <th>Lastname</th> <th>Email</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody id="myTable"> <tr> <td>John</td> <td>Doe</td> <td>john@example.com</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Mary</td> <td>Moe</td> <td>mary@mail.com</td> </tr> <tr> <td>July</td> <td>Dooley</td> <td>july@greatstuff.com</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Anja</td> <td>Ravendale</td> <td>a_r@test.com</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> |
Copy the jQuery code and add it before the body tag closed.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 | <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ $("#myInput").on("keyup", function() { var value = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); $("#myTable tr").filter(function() { $(this).toggle($(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(value) > -1) }); }); }); </script> |
