removing a row from a table

i’ve had trouble removing a row from a table using javascript. the tricks i’ve learned assumes that i am dealing with a div always. in some cases, i can’t help but use a table.

a quick google search offered me a lot of solutions. this is the one that worked in my case, and is just 2 lines! for convenience i just placed it in a function.

function removeTableRow(row,tableid)
{
var r=row.parentNode.parentNode.rowIndex;
document.getElementById(tableid).deleteRow(r);
}

so using the function above, you have the following line somewhere:

onclick=”removeTableRow(this,’myTable’)”;

and somewhere else you have a table that is defined like this:

<table id=’myTable’>
.. .
.. .
.. .
</table>
