This code generate simple search bar and table than we'll add JavaScript code to make this working
**

JS Code

function searchFunction() {
      // Declare variables
      var input, filter, table, tr, td, i, txtValue;
      input = document.getElementById("inp");
      filter = input.value.toUpperCase();
      table = document.getElementById("table");
      tr = table.getElementsByTagName("tr");

      // Loop through all table rows, and hide those who don't match the search query
      for (i = 0; i < tr.length; i++) {
        td = tr[i].getElementsByTagName("td")[0];
        if (td) {
          txtValue = td.textContent || td.innerText;
          if (txtValue.toUpperCase().indexOf(filter) > -1) {
            tr[i].style.display = "";
          } else {
            tr[i].style.display = "none";
          }
        }
      }
    }
