Simultaneously filter multiple data from a same column

alang2205

taking this as an example: https://datatables.net/
how can i simultaneously search for Angelica Ramos and Airi Satou, so that with only one search i can have both names

Use a regex search with column().search(), for example:

See the search() for more details about the different search modes and how to apply them. Also look at this example.
