This parameter allows you to have define the global filtering state at
initialisation time. As an object the "sSearch" parameter must be
defined, but all other parameters are optional. When "bRegex" is true,
the search string will be treated as a regular expression, when false
(default) it will be treated as a straight string. When "bSmart"
DataTables will use it's smart filtering methods (to word match at
any point in the data), when false this will not be done.
Example
$(document).ready( function() {
$('#example').dataTable( {
"oSearch": {"sSearch": "Initial search"}
} );
} )
