title: How to do custom filtering with Datatables and server-side processing
body: <p>I am using <a href="http://datatables.net" rel="noreferrer">Datatables</a> to display tabular data in my Web application, and have configured it to make use of <a href="http://datatables.net/usage/server-side" rel="noreferrer">server-side processing</a>, i.e. query the server via AJAX for filtered data. I want to filter according to additional parameters that are specific to my application, i.e. corresponding to some user options (f.ex. via a checkbox in the UI). How do I make DataTables pass these additional filter parameters to the server?</p>
