get the selected row value

jobybazty

Hi,
I have added datatable in my list and in each row, there is a button. I want to get a value from the clicked buttons row. please help me to find a solution for this

On http://datatables.net/ref, check the fnGetData function. You can feed this function the 'tr'-element, and it spit out its data :)

Hi,
Thank you for your reply and time spent to read my request. I did as per the example. But, i m geting null as result.

$('#servsallist').append('Doc No    EC No          Action ');
oTable = $('#servsallist').dataTable({
"bLengthChange": false,
"bPaginate": false ,
"aaSorting": [[ 0, "desc" ]]
});
$('input[type="button"]').click(function ()
{
alert("clicked ...");
/* Get the position of the current data from the node */
var sData = oTable.fnGetData( this );
alert("========= "+sData);
var aPos = oTable.fnGetPosition(this);
alert("aPos ..."+aPos);
/* Get the data array for this row */
var aData = oTable.fnGetData( aPos[0] );

/* Update the data array and return the value */
aData[ aPos[1] ] = 'clicked';
this.innerHTML = 'clicked';
});

});

This is the code I am using.

Regards,

Joby Joseph
