In the previous example I wanted mostly show how one can overwrite methods from $.jgrid.from. If you try to search in my first example for: Client contains 'bene' instead of 'béne' you will find the both lines. So the problem is just in the additional conversion of the input line with the respect of myAccentRemovement function.

To fix the problem in the previous example one can just add some additional lines in the code and overwrite additionally the _toStr method:

You can see live here that the new example work with "contain", "start with" or other operations.

sorry to answer so late to your suggestion;

I try your demo at : http://www.ok-soft-gmbh.com/jq.....Search.htm

It is OK for : Client begin with béne -> and find bénevise and benevise

It is not OK for : Client contains béne -> and find NOTHING.

your question is difficult, but I found it interesting. So I prepared the demo which demonstrate the idea, how to solve the problem. Try to search in the grid for the string benevise and you will find also the string bénevise.

Of cause the replacement of accentuated characters in the string is not supported directly. So to solve the problem I made following. I replace _getStr method of the $.jgrid.from:

where global function myAccentRemovement is defined as following

Of cause you can include the code inside of _getStr function instead of myAccentRemovement call, but I made so in case of more complex implementation of the accent replacement.

To understand the solution I describe the main idea how the local searching work. The standard implementation of the local searching create string like

"(String(this.name) == String("benevise"))"

in case of "equal to" operation or

"(String(this.name).indexOf("benevise",0) > -1)"

in case of "contain" operation.

Then inside of execute function (see here) will be the above string executed with respect of eval JavaScript function:

After the modification of _getStr function the code like

"(myAccentRemovement(String(this.name)) == myAccentRemovement(String("benevise")))"

will be executed.

Modifying my example you can implement practically any custom local searching/filtering.

This option is already set to true and searching is not case sensitive;

But it does'not solve searching on accentued chars;

Example : local searching "benevise" do not find "bénevise"; json data is "B\u00e9nevise"
