Try this: Here is a sample of the <head> section of my html document:
<HEAD> <TITLE>ASAP Summries 2-26-08 - Flight Options</TITLE> <script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></ script> <script src="jquery.quicksearch.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script> <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> $(document).ready(function () { $('table#my_id_of_the_table tbody TR').quicksearch({ attached: "table#asap", position: "before", stripeRowClass: ['odd', 'even'], labelText: 'This text will be displayed right before the search box', inputText: 'This text will initially be in the search box', loaderImg: 'loader.gif' }); }) </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" media="all" title="" /> </HEAD> The start of the <body> section looks like this- remember it is vital that your id for the table matches the id you used above in the <head> section. For instance above I used my_id_of_the_table and you will find this same id in the <body> section below. The links to the home and back are not necessary. I have actual links there but you do not need them. : <BODY> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"> <SPAN CLASS="nav-field"><A HREF="link to home page ">Home</A>/<A HREF="link to back page">Back</A></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV ALIGN="CENTER"><H2>This is a header of the table</H2><BR> <TABLE border="1" CELLSPACING="0" id="my_id_of_the_table"> <thead> <TH>ID</TH> <TH>Report ID(s)</TH> <TH>Event #</TH> <TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Date/Time</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Local Time</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Notes</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Factor</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Likelihood</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Related</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Statement</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Title</ TH><TH>General<BR>Processing<BR>Person Responsible</TH> </thead> <tbody> Your table needs to be embedded within a <tbody> Your Table </tbody> tag. The <TR> and <TD> elements for your table go here - Notice that the number of <TD> elements below match the number of <TH> elements above in the <thead> section! <TR VALIGN="top"> <TD><A HREF="#">3000</A></TD> <TD><A HREF="#">3008</A><BR></TD> <TD>1</TD> <TD>Mon, 15 Jan 2007 19:30 Z<BR></TD> <TD><BR></TD> <TD><BR></TD> <TD>Blue<BR></TD> <TD>Prob<BR></TD> <TD>3<BR></TD> <TD><BR></TD> <TD>Some text in a table cell<BR></TD> <TD>Yes<BR></TD> </TR> The text below will follow your actual table - after the last </TR> You need to make sure you close your html entities. </TR></tbody></TABLE></DIV><BR><DIV ALIGN="LEFT"> <SPAN CLASS="count-field">Report generated Thu, 13 Mar 2008 15:28 Z</SPAN></ DIV></BODY></HTML> I hope this helps!
