I want to filter the list without case sensitive. I want to match only character not match upper case or lower case.
If I enter "X" in search box it displays both 1 and 3. I added the code below but it match the case sensitive also.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<script>
function filter(element) {
var value = $(element).val();
$("#theList > li").each(function() {
if ($(this).text().search(value) > -1) {
$(this).show();
}
else {
$(this).hide();
}
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="text" onkeyup="filter(this)" />
<ul id="theList">
<li>xxvxvxx</li>
<li>yyyyyyyyyy</li>
<li>rrrrrrrrrr</li>
<li>vvvvvvvvvvv</li>
<li>xcvcvdfsdf</li>
<li>hkjhkhjkh</li>
<li>xzfgfhfgh</li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
You need to use indexOf
$(this).text().search(value)
supposed to be
$(this).text().indexOf(value)
And why do you want to attach your event using the attribute tag.It is a bad practice and should be avoided.
You can use jQuery to attach the event.
$('input').keyup(function() {
filter(this);
});
function filter(element) {
var value = $(element).val().toLowerCase();
$("#theList > li").each(function () {
var $this = $(this),
lower = $this.text;
if (lower.indexOf(value) > -1) {
$this.show();
} else {
$this.hide();
}
});
}
Check Fiddle
Same function a little better using filter
function filter(element) {
var value = $(element).val().toLowerCase();
$("#theList > li").hide().filter(function() {
return $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(value) > -1;
}).show();
}
Just Add
jQuery.expr[":"].contains = function (a, i, m) {
return (a.textContent || a.innerText || "").toUpperCase().indexOf(m[3].toUpperCase())>=0;};
Just replace
$(this).text().search(value) > -1
with:
$(this).text().search(new RegExp(value, "i")) > -1
and that should do the trick. Here is a working FIDDLE
