Also, is it possible to remove the “showing ?? to ?? out of ??” from the table?
Hi,
no, hiding the table until something is searched for is not possible. Sorry.
This might be possible with some custom programming using the DataTables JavaScript library’s API, but I’m not sure about that.
To remove that “showing…” message, just uncheck the “Info Bar” checkbox in the “DataTables JavaScript Features” section on the “Edit” screen of your table.
Best wishes,

Also, is it possible to have to search only look left to right? As in, if you look for “P” only things that begin with be come up rather than numbers that have “P” as the last letter?
Hi,
this is not possible by default, you would need to develop a custom search algorithm, again with the DataTables JavaScript library. For more information on that and the API, I suggest that you take a look at the DataTables website: http://www.datatables.net
Best wishes,
Tobias
