    igonzalez,

    Assuming that the hidden column you want to search in is the first column; do this:

    [code]
    var oTable = $('table').dataTable( {
    "fnRowCallback": function(nRow, aData, iDisplayIndex, iDisplayIndexFull){
    if (aData[0] == 'valueToSearchFor'){
    $(nRow).addClass("new-class-name")
    }

    return nRow
    }
    } )
    [/code]
