I have a ajax returned value that is a json array. I then use .each() to append the values to a table. I include a button in each row to select the paticular row. How do I get the value of the sibling 'editTemplateId' to select that particular row.
heres the code
ajax call
$.ajax({
url: '/php-list/ajax/',
type: 'POST',
data: {method: 'loadTemplatesGrid'},
dataType: 'json',
success: function(data){
$("#templatesGridTable").find("tr:gt(0)").remove();
$.each(data, function(i, item) {
$('#templatesGridTable > tbody:last').append('<tr><td id="templateTitle"><h4>'+item.d+'</h4></td><td><form method="post"><input type="text" name="editTemplateId" id="editTemplateId" value="'+item.a+'"><input type="button" class="submit" type="button" id="editTemplate" name="editTemplate" value="Edit Template" onclick="editTemplateClick();"></form></td></tr>');
});
}
});
the jquery function(s)
this one just alerts a blank message
function editTemplateClick(){
alert($(this).siblings('#editTemplateId').val());
}
this one just alerts the top rows id value
function editTemplateClick(){
alert($('#editTemplateId').val());
}
this also just alerts a blank message
function editTemplateClick(){
alert( $(this).parent().find('#editTemplateId').val() );
}
any help greatly appreciated
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#templatesGridTable').click(function (event) {
alert($(event.target).prev().val());
});
});
found the answer myself
