So I've been trying a while to make a custom filter that searches for the 'Startswith' parameters rather than the 'Contains'. Every filter that I've written haven't seem to work properly. Here is an example of what I'm trying to achieve ---> http://jsfiddle.net/DMSChris/9ptr9/
function FilterCtrl() {
var scope = this;
scope.doFilter = function(elem) {
if(!scope.searchText) return true;
return elem.last_name.toLowerCase().indexOf( scope.searchText.toLowerCase()) == 0;
};
}
http://jsbin.com/OyubElO/1/edit - Here is where I'm at right now.
<ul border="1px" ng-repeat="msg in messages | filter:search:strict">
<li>{{msg.last_name}}</li>
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
