thead filter set input type

[Ken Colvin]

• How do I set the input type for the THEAD filter html INPUT types?
• The goal is to have a generic method update the THEAD input types and not write custom code for each column
• For example, is there a way to have something like

<thead>
<th data-type='date' title='Enter Date'></th>
<th data-type='number' data-step='1' title='Enter Integer'></th>
<th data-type='number' data-step='.01' title='Enter Decimal'></th>
</thead>

Resulting in the THEAD filter input types:

<input type='date'>

Integer
<input type='number' step=1>

Decimal
<input type='number' step=.01>

• I see you can have "complex" inputs for each column.
• I do not want to add custom code for every column like these demos
