Comment on Create a jQuery + SharePoint instant search/filter by bentedder

List View WebPart should be fine. Although, you mentioned you were in SharePoint 2007. Honestly, they might apply some different class to table rows. Really, if you can grab a class of a table row you’ll be good. You just need to give jQuery something to hook onto when it does its search for each row.

Hi B-

I am having issues locating the ms-itmhover class… where would this be located in the source of the page? Also- i’m using a list view web part, not a content query webpart… does this matter?

Thanks for a great post and a great site – I’ve just come across it, and it’s definitely one of the best for the power-user just short of ‘developer’ (like me!)

Hey Will,
Yeah, jQuery searches every row of the table. When SharePoint creates the table it puts a class of “ms-itemhover” on each row. So this was a quick way of selecting every row that’s visible.

I imagine this works with SP2007 because it’s really not dependent on any SharePoint features. As long as you can select the classes of rows or cells you want to search, jQuery should be able to handle it.

Oh, and also…
“tr.ms-itmhover seems to be the correct selector for any row in a list view”

Do you mean the column ID in this case? Or does this jQuery search look in ANY column that’s visible in a share point list view?

Wow. This is pretty awesome. I built a custom search function for SharePoint 2007 using JavaScript… what mine does is manipulates the URL string to mimic filtering functions with wildcards. However, the drawback is searching using this method requires reload, which limits the effectiveness of variables and such.

I’m going to try this next week. Do you know if this works with SharePoint 2007? We haven’t yet upgraded…

Nice post. I found this very useful for my project. But my next step is how to do pagination? I don’t want to get the entire result list returned and I can not use the camlquery for the returned list.
