Question

I’m looking to add an attribute (href) into a td of a table.

I guess jQuery would work!

I need help please…

url: http://mysite

The original table:

<table>
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Type</th>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Url</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr class='Collection'>
            <td>Collection</td>
            <td>Collection1</td>
            <td>/Collection1</td>
        </tr>
        <tr class='Site'>
            <td>Site</td>
            <td>Site1</td>
            <td>/site1</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

So the result would be :

<table>
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Type</th>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Url</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr class='Collection'>
            <td>Collection</td>
            <td>Collection1</td>
            <td><a href="http://mysite/Collection1">/Collection1</a></td>
        </tr>
        <tr class='Site'>
            <td>Site</td>
            <td>Site1</td>
            <td><a href="http://mysite/site1">/site1</a></td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

Assuming you meant “add a link into a td of a table”, try this:

$('table tbody tr').each(function() {
    var cell = $('td:last', this),
        url  = $(cell).text();

    $(cell).wrapInner('<a href="' + url + '">');
})​
