Question

I want to include a delete link in a table column, using the jQuery dataTables plugin. I am certain this is easy. I have no problem adding columns, and I know the syntax for actually removing the table, I just don’t know the row that is clicked on.

The rows are added dynamically through the UI, so I’m not rendering any rows other than the header in the beginning.

Answer 1

another example…

$("#TableID tbody").delegate("tr", "click", function() {
    var iPos = oTable.fnGetPosition( this );//oTable is the table object itself
    if(iPos!=null){
        //couple of example on what can be done with the clicked row...
        var aData = oTable.fnGetData( iPos );//get data of the clicked row
        var iId = aData[1];//get column data of the row
        oTable.fnDeleteRow(iPos);//delete row

    }

});
