Question

Hey guys I am trying to get a specific name from a table. Here is my code:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#NotesAccessor").click(function () {
      var notes_name = $(this).document.getElementById("#user_table");
      alert(notes_name);
      run();
    });
});

Here is the above this is where I am trying to access the associated username with which table row was click with the #notesAccessor

Table:

 .........
    <td>
        $csvusername
    </td>
.........
    <td>
    ";
      if ($checkNotes[1] == 'No')
    {
        echo "None";
    }
    if ($checkNotes[1] == 'Yes')
    {
            echo "<a href='#' id='NotesAccessor'>Click to access</a>";
    }
    echo "
    </td>
........

My question is – how do I get the $csvusername of the associated NotesAccessor so I can then send this to a dialog in Jquery and open of the notes of that one person I need to get.

Hope this makes sense.

update:

here is full table:

<table class='results'>
    <tr class='firsttr' style='background:gray;'>

You are mixing pure JavaScript with jQuery, you can solve it as follows.

First of all, you can put a class to identify the <td> with $csvusername, like class='td_with_csvusername' and then do this:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $(".NotesAccessor").on("click", function () {
        var td = $(this).parent().parent().find(".td_with_csvusername");
        alert(td.html());
    });
});
