JQuery Show

JQuery Hide

You also may want to make use of div tables for this project instead of actual tables. You selectors such as $(“#idofcolumn”).toggle(); to hide and show the div or in your case you would probably want to show a text field. You could even .html() to replace the text in a column with a text box. There are several ways to go about this. Check out the JQuery documentation.
