Search All Columns in KendoUI Grid

Question

I am trying to create a search box for a kendoUI grid. I have been able to get a start on doing a search based on one field however I would like the value in my search box t

Answer 1

I think that you should say eq to fee or eq to fi if you want to match one of the two conditions.

I´ve slightly modified your fiddle to show it. If you type on the search box you will filter records matching either ProductName column or QuantityPerUnit.

//change event
$("#category").keyup(function () {
    var val = $('#category').val();
    $("#grid").data("kendoGrid").dataSource.filter({
        logic  : "or",
        filters: [
            {
                field   : "ProductName",
                operator: "contains",
                value   : val
            },
            {
                field   : "QuantityPerUnit",
                operator: "contains",
                value   : val
            }
        ]
    });
});

IMPORTANT: I have had to update jQuery version to 1.8.2 for making it work and just in case I have updated KendoUI, as well, to the latest version.
