getting specific data of selected row

yoan

Hi everyone,

I'm desperately trying to get specific data from the selected rows.
I want to get the data-ID attribute of the second column of each selected rows, but I only have access to the content of the cell.
<tr> <th>Customer name</th> <th>City</th> <th>Amount</th> </tr>
<tr id="1234"> <td data-id="553">Jason</td> <td>Paris</td> <td>$140</td> </tr>
<tr id="1255"> <td data-id="704">Mike</td> <td>London</td> <td>$114</td> </tr>

var rows = table.rows({selected: true} ).data().toArray(); for (let i in rows) { console.log(JSON.stringify( rows[i][1] )); //shows Jason }
Any help please ?

You will need to use rows().nodes() to get the tr nodes for the row. Better is to use cells().nodes(). See this example
http://live.datatables.net/feqekoje/1/edit

It uses rows().indexes() to get the indexes of the selected rows. The indexes are used for the rows parameter of cells().nodes(). to$() is used to return a jQuery object. The loop is used to get the id of each td in the array.

perfect kthorngren,thank you genius

But can I also get the td content ?
I'm trying :

console.log($(value).innerHTML());

but it doesn't work....

UPDATE
It's okay. I just had to use

$(value).text()

Thanks again

You can also use cells().data() or cell().data() to get the data of the cell.
