I was thinking to apply a filtering function on GridView by using jQuery, such as a plugin called quickSearch. I have tried to google it but what i found is, normally the quickSearch is implemented together with table. So, for gridview, how can i filter the gridview using quickSearch??

A: 

I'm not sure why it wouldn't work. GridViews render as html tables so that plugin should probably do the trick.

actually, i have figured out implementing the jquery into the gridview. But now i found a new problem, the jquery only filter the 1st page of the gridview but not the others. Any idea?

it only filtered the first page because that is the only data that is on the user's page. jQuery runs on the client side and not server side.

Very true, use a mix, depending on the data being displayed. If it is small result sets and I will be showing it all at once.

@Wee Shian : Can you please share the jQuery script to filter rows in an asp.net grid view to my email [email protected] or as reply to this post.

Thanks in advance!!
