Get rid of search bar.

searls03

is there anyway to get rid of the search bar on the datatables?

If you have used sDom, remove 'f' from it. If you haven't used sDom at all while initializing the DT, then by default you would have got pagination, information, Length Menu and Search Bar. use sDom to display / remove these options.
See http://datatables.net/usage/options for sDom settings and
http://datatables.net/styling/ for styling

What girishmr says :-).

One additional option is to use bFilter to completely disable filtering.
