I want to expand and collapse table rows when header columns is clicked. I only want to expand/collapse rows which are under the specific header (clicked).
Here is my table structure:
<table border="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">Header</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>data</td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>data</td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">Header</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>date</td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>data</td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>data</td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
</table>
Any thoughts on how can I accomplish this task. Using div this task seems quite simple, but I have tabular data which I want to manipulate.
One idea I can think of is to use css class in every row which distinguish rows in under each header and use JQuery to expand/collapse those rows only when header is clicked. But if my table has 10-15 headers then it seems difficult to keep track of css classes.
Please suggest a suitable way to achieve this.
You can try this way:-
Give a class say header
to the header rows, use nextUntil to get all rows beneath the clicked header until the next header.
$('.header').click(function(){
$(this).nextUntil('tr.header').slideToggle(1000);
});
<table border="0">
<tr class="header">
<td colspan="2">Header</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>data</td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>data</td>
<td>data</td>
</tr>
Another Example:
$('.header').click(function(){
$(this).find('span').text(function(_, value){return value=='-'?'+':'-'});
$(this).nextUntil('tr.header').slideToggle(100); // or just use "toggle()"
});
You can also use promise to toggle the span icon/text after the toggle is complete in-case of animated toggle.
$('.header').click(function () {
var $this = $(this);
$(this).nextUntil('tr.header').slideToggle(100).promise().done(function () {
$this.find('span').text(function (_, value) {
return value == '-' ? '+' : '-'
});
});
});
Or just with a css pseudo element to represent the sign of expansion/collapse, and just toggle a class on the header.
CSS:-
.header .sign:after{
content:"+";
display:inline-block;
}
.header.expand .sign:after{
content:"-";
}
JS:-
$(this).toggleClass('expand').nextUntil('tr.header').slideToggle(100);
