Filter only specific Html Table Columns

  • Countries, in this case it is the column with index 1
const myFunction = () => {
  const columns = [
    { name: 'Name', index: 0, isFilter: false },
    { name: 'Country', index: 1, isFilter: true }
  ]
  const filterColumns = columns.filter(c => c.isFilter).map(c => c.index)
  const trs = document.querySelectorAll(`#myTable tr:not(.header)`)
  const filter = document.querySelector('#myInput').value
  const regex = new RegExp(escape(filter), 'i')
  const isFoundInTds = td => regex.test(td.innerHTML)
  const isFound = childrenArr => childrenArr.some(isFoundInTds)
  const setTrStyleDisplay = ({ style, children }) => {
    style.display = isFound([
      ...filterColumns.map(c => children[c]) // <-- filter Columns
    ]) ? '' : 'none'
  }
  
  trs.forEach(setTrStyleDisplay)
}
input#myInput { width: 220px; }
table#myTable { width: 100%; }
table#myTable th { text-align: left; padding: 20px 0 10px; }
<input 
  type="text" 
  id="myInput" 
  onkeyup="myFunction()" 
  placeholder="Search for names or countries.."

<table id="myTable">
