Coordinate a Parent table selection with 2 or more Child tables on the same page

datatables97

Here is what I would like to do:

I have a parent table. It as a unique record ID for each record.
Then I will have a couple of children tables that have supporting data to the parent.
ie.. players related to parent, field locations related to parent, events related to parent.

When a user clicks on a parent record, I would like for the child tables to re-draw so the data related to the selected parent record refreshes the child tables.

Could you point me to thread that may have already tacked something like this. Or, give me an overview of how I might be able to accomplish this.

Thanks..

PS. This is my first project using datatables.. figured I would make it a dozy.... hahaha

This post shows how it can be done. It uses Editor, but if you didn't want the tables to be editable, you can just drop that part and the rest would still apply.
