After inserting this new table row i would like to sort the table by the first column (or any attribute of the first columns td elememts). I tries some Plugins like tinysort right now, but they only sort the "fixed" rows, not the dynamicly added.
The table should be sorted automaticly, the user should not be able to sort it.
I have a need to use jquery to insert a row into a table (individual cells within row include images, input box, radio buttons; each with their own attributes). So far i've only been able to append rows to existing rows, or clone an existing row. Is it possible to insert a new row? The table html is already present. I have searched high and low for examples of this to no avail. Here is what the empty table looks like:
<!-- sub table for answer options --> <table id="white_background" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tr><td> <table id="answer_options" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0">
So what I need to do is to simply clone the row, substitute new values from an array and insert it after the last existing row (if array's size more then 1). But this doesn't work! Where is an error?
I've used jQuery ajax and .post a lot, and several times within the very application that i'm having issues with, but I've never run into this issue before.I've got a table of items and categories, sorted by a sort number. in the same cell that the sortnum input is in, there is a span with a status id that differentiates between items and categories so i can modify the correct records in the correct database table.First, i select all of the inputs and then sort them by the value of the input. next, i loop through the inputs, creating two arrays: one array contains the type of entry, and the other contains the id of the entry.
After the loop, i join each array into its own variable, sortlist and typelist. Next, i perform a .post passing the two lists to my server.The problem is, on the server side, those two variables are getting a "[]" appended to the end of them, and since i'm working in coldfusion, the only way to get data from them is with evaluate. I can get by using evaluate(), but i'd rather not have to.So far i haven't found a way to get the value of this variable. has anyone else ran into this issue and found a solution?
I am using Jquery and the tablesorter plugin to sort a table of information. Within the table i have a column of checkboxes. A user can check the boxes and press the submit button which will $_POST the checked boxes onto the next page. Everything works if i dont sort the table, but if i sort the table and then check a few boxes the $_POST array is empty.
I've been trying just about every sort function I could google but they do not work becuase I am building the table I want to sort dynamically from XML - then appending it to the page using innerHTML. No HTML gets written to the page, hence there are no HTML values to iterate through to sort. Does anyone know a way to capture values that have been extracted from the XML file and then sort them based upon the users selection?
The below javascript code only displays table rows in class ms-formlabel that contain (AP) in the text. It works great.However, I also need it to also insert a new row right above any rows that also contains (H: and in the detail of that new row, I need the string following the H:So a table row with (AP)(H:Sleepless), would insert a row right above that row as follows
<TR><TD>Sleepless</TD></TR> <script type="text/javascript"> var theRows = document.getElementsByTagName("TR");
I have a table which contains a link to add rows in each row after the header. This link, when clicked, adds a row beneath the row which contained the clicked link. This part works perfectly.
However the added rows each have a link to remove themselves from the table, and this is the part which isn't working properly. What's supposed to happen is that you click on a link, and then the row which contains the link you just clicked on is deleted.
What's actually happening is when the "remove" links are clicked, first the row 2 rows above it is removed, then the row directly above it, then the correct row (itself) is deleted.
I have a form on a page that has several textareas, and textboxes inside a table (so the table containing the textboxes is also inside the FORM tag).
I want to replace the textareas with simple text instead. But I want to keep the format of my page EXACTLY the same. However, the problem is that ...
1) Javascript won't let me create say a one-cell TABLE containing some text (e.g. textarea's value) and then insertBefore an element in the form. This is so because the a TABLE element is not compatible to be a FORM's child.
2) I surely can insert a text node or a table using appendChild or insertBefore on document.body. However, like I said I must maintain the formatting of my page, so I again can not do this. Reason being that the document.body won't have access to anything that's inside the FORM tag and can only insert before or after the FORM tag.
e.g.
<BODY> <P id="para1">foo</P> <FORM id=form1"> <!-- anything in here is Form's property NOT body's --> <input type="text" name="name" id="txtbox1"> </FORM> </BODY>
So the following code is invalid:
var tNode = document.createTextNode ("hello"); document.body.insertBefore (tNode, document.forms[0].getElementsByTagName ("txtbox1"));
because I can't insert a textnode before a form element using a body method.
And following code is valid but not what I want according to my second point above:
var tNode = document.createTextNode ("hello"); document.body.appendChild (tNode);
How can I insert a text node or table containing text inside FORM tags?
devolping a javascriptcode for creating a table and inserting images inside it. it should consist of two rows. upper row should contain one image and the lower row should contain 2 small images. not allowed to use html. no borders and no spaces between the images.only with java script.
I am trying to duplicate the graphic effect used in Outlook for sorting Columns, click on it the first time and it sorts descending, click again and it clicks ascending, click on another field and the original image returns and that field is now sorted. I can do the actual sort on the back-end using JSP, and really only need to make the script smart enough to know that another column has been clicked.
A couple of items for consideration, I am working on an intranet, and must support Version 4 browsers. The server I am using is an Iplanet V6.0 server.
I'm trying to alphabetically sort a table in javascript (that is actually automatically populated from an XML file). The table is a list of words in 3 languages, one of which is Italian. What is happening is, the sort() function I am using to order the words is not considering accented characters, such as:
that should be sorted exactly as their corresponding ASCII characters A,O,U,E,I
The code sortes/reverses the rows of a table with data upon the correspondent chosen column.

I have a table that I am trying to implement sortTable so i can sort the Table by the Column Headers. I have come across a few different ways to implement sortTable, but none of them seem to be working for me. here is the first way I tried to implement it (in the <table class =" ">) this is not the way I would like to do, as I have CSS defined class "halloween" I would like to use (unless u can implement 2 classes?) anyways it is still not working but here is the code
OK so Ive been using jquery for a little bit now and love it. I am a ColdFusion developer. I have a need where I would like to present the user with a list of categories and the user can drag and drop to sort, but then I need to post this new sort order to the database. So I see there are a ton of cool drag & drop plugins for jquery. I understand how they work and I can get it to work as far as spitting out DIVS or spitting out ULs that can be sorted, but then what? So now they are sorted on my screen and not really part of the form. How do I translate that into something I can do a post to the database with? Do I do an AJAX call every time they drop an item and try to extrapolate the sort order on that item after they drop it? Do I populate a hidden form field with the constantly updating sort order list? MAybe a list of ID's? How does everyone else go about this this task? I'm sure there is more than one way and I'm sure this is a common task.
I'm working on a project that requires me to take numerous classes and put these within a list-item. I have been trying to do this with different methods, such as before, insertBefore and Prepend. All these methods have had the same result.
Instead of inserting a single <li> in front of the class, a complete list-item has been inserted (<li></li>.
I am having a hard time figuring out how to prompt a user then save that prompt into a cookie.. I am wanting to make a option on my forum to have someone open a prompt enter an image url then save that url into a cookie as well as writing their response into a img tag to make it a background.. I already have a script to save backgrounds images but was wanting an option to allow my users to pick there own favorite image.
Seems simple enough in theory. I have multiple divs, all with the class of "post". in the middle of those i have a blank div named "photoholder". All i'm trying to do is remove the images from any "post" div, and insert them into the nearest "photoholder" div. here's what i got which doesn't work at all:
I know this functionality can be achieved using frames, but I'm trying to avoid that because it seems to break everything else when I do use them! Here is a snapshot from my website, in basic form at the moment: What I am trying to do is: make the names on the left side adjust the text on the right side. However, I would like to be able to put the text / pictures for each link in a separate HTML, to make it easy to update and add new ones in the future. Is there some way to do this in jQuery, preferably that does not require a huge knowledge of programming?
I have a checkbox where if a user clicks it, the address fields gets removed and if he clicks it again, it should add those address fields back.I can get it to remove it successfully but when I try to add those fields back, I get [object Object] displayed instead.
var detached_fields = ''; //$("input[name='online_only_bus']") is the checkbox $("input[name='online_only_bus']").click(function(){
