Adding an onclick event to a table row
Something like this.
function addRowHandlers() {
var table = document.getElementById("tableId");
var rows = table.getElementsByTagName("tr");
for (i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
var currentRow = table.rows[i];
var createClickHandler = function(row) {
return function() {
var cell = row.getElementsByTagName("td")[0];
var id = cell.innerHTML;
alert("id:" + id);
};
};
currentRow.onclick = createClickHandler(currentRow);
}
}
EDIT
Working demo.
Simple way is generating code as bellow:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
table, td {
border:1px solid black;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Click on each tr element to alert its index position in the table:</p>
<table>
<tr onclick="myFunction(this)">
<td>Click to show rowIndex</td>
</tr>
<tr onclick="myFunction(this)">
<td>Click to show rowIndex</td>
</tr>
<tr onclick="myFunction(this)">
<td>Click to show rowIndex</td>
</tr>
</table>
<script>
function myFunction(x) {
alert("Row index is: " + x.rowIndex);
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
