selection issue in Individual column search

[carlkyo]

Thanks so much for all your efforts and great work,
I love your DataTables Library very much
If the data for an item in the drop-down menu is too short, the results may be incorrect.
It seems that there are AP and Laptop in the options. They both have the letters AP.
When you select AP, both AP and Laptop information will appear
It is perfect if it is exact match (“=”) when the input is selection by dropdown, while it is similar text (“like”) when the input is by typing.
I appreciate your kind assistance, Thanks you

Curently I use custom_filter to solve the problem.
Thanks
