I have scrollable datatable, in which i have implemented custom filter using filtermethod in column tag. I can see the scroll bar and able to scroll but I have 2 problems
1) Custom filter is not working
2) Sorting is not working
Everything works fine if i use plain simple Datatable but I need scroll bar for my datatable.
I am putting both the flavours of my page
Please can anyone tell me what is going wrong ?
here's my code using scrollableDataTable :
