Search from grid view and display multiple records

Talon Yu

So I am trying to make a program that allows me to search within a gridview, and then display the searched values. Currently, I can only display 1 record at a time. If I were to search for another record, it is still able to display that record, but then it will replace the first record instead. So no matter how many time you search, you will only see 1 row of gridview being displayed as it kept replacing the values inside the row everytime you make a new search.

What I want to do is that I can search multiple times, but instead of just displaying only 1 row, it can display multiple rows according to what you have searched for. Thanks in advance.

Please do refer to this page to what I am saying

So I was following this guide where it allows to search within the gridview and display the searched row. This guide only can show 1 row at a time. If I were to make another search, then the values in the display will be replaced and only 1 row is being shown. What I want is that when I make another search with a row been displayed already, it will display another row below the first one and the values will show on the second row instead

Sorry for the late reply. It was my first time using this platform and I did not know that they had make a page for my question.

You can try jquery datatable for best searching, sorting and pagination. You can implement either client or server side.

Hi,
You need to save search results in memory. Probably you can append html if you are using jquery tableHtml.append("search result html").
