I used w3School code for my page and it works fine but it only filters one column, don’t know how create loops but hopping there is easier solution.
td = tr[i].getElementsByTagName("td")[0];
changing here 0 to 1 changes the column, could find anything so tried many different thing but not the programmer have no idea if there any other properties that allows multiple columns, spent so much searching, please help
function myFunction() {
var input, filter, table, tr, td, i;
input = document.getElementById("myInput");
filter = input.value.toUpperCase();
table = document.getElementById("myTable");
tr = table.getElementsByTagName("tr");
for (i = 0; i < tr.length; i++) {
td = tr[i].getElementsByTagName("td")[0];
if (td) {
if (td.innerHTML.toUpperCase().indexOf(filter) > -1) {
tr[i].style.display = "";
} else {
tr[i].style.display = "none";
}
}
}
}
